Its the kind of exuberant soul boogie George Michael once made...and it gives us hope for the future of sexy pop.” - INSTINCT Magazine*****“Gold’s music is both a declaration of love and a passionate rendition of identity politics. Luckily, Transport Systems is also ridiculously catchy, locking Gold’s themes into another firm R&B tradition — sneaking in the subversive lyrics through smooth vocals and clean production.” - The FORWARD*****“A pop music masterpiece.” – OUT & ABOUT Newspaper,Nashville***************************************** ***********Sign on to Ari's emailing list at www.arigold.com for more info, tour dates, interviews, podcasts, ringtones, charities and more!!
