About Me

What do you get when you cross a decent acoustic-guitar solo act who sings with a smooth "Jack Johnson" / "Coffeehouse" style, with four of some of the best musicians the Triad has to offer? It's something pretty damn cool. The acoustic rock music has become a fusion of sorts now that the songs can be heard with such a variety of new influence. Still not sure what to name those guys, but in 2008 Goose finally met up with Jeremy Brady (formerly of Chris Daughtry), Josh Senic (Pocket Grooves), Saul Johnson (a great ear for musical composition), and Tra Jones (Versatile musician and awesome songwriter as well). They recorded "Dancing With Athena", Goose's debut album. The acoustic stuff still works, and there's a lot of great variety on the album. Everyone should have a favorite on this CD.
