THE EDITED PRESS RELEASE: “Goose are an American rock band known for a genre-blending sound, improvisational shows, and dedicated fan base. The bandmembers are Rick Mitarotonda (vocals, guitar), Peter Anspach (vocals, keys, guitar), Trevor Weekz (bass) and Cotter Ellis (vocals, drums). Their music — a deft union of indie-rock hooks, sprawling jams and driving rhythm — has propelled them from performing in Connecticut basements to headlining some of the most revered stages in the country. Known for their strong DIY ethos, Goose have grown organically through relentless touring and utilizing online to share live performances and connect with fans.
Everything Must Go is Goose’s fourth studio album and their first release since 2022’s critically acclaimed Dripfield. Drawing from the feel of the band’s live show, the album features a carnivalesque cast of characters — primarily songs written throughout the bands recent years of growth, including reimagined live staples and songs that capture the band’s evolving, dynamic sound. First single Give it Time is a product of Goose’s reconfiguration and reinvention in 2024. The song unfurls triumphantly, the voice of doubt overwhelmed by a soaring guitar and five-part harmonies. Give It Time is about coming out from under it, the grace of a fresh start, and letting the world come to you.
Since their earliest days recording 2016’s Moon Cabin in a barn in northern New Hampshire, Goose have been developing their unique approach to writing and improvising, achieving a rare balance between thoughtfully crafted songs, tight musicianship, and emotional honesty. Dripfield reached No. 2 on Billboard’s Top New Artist Albums chart. Through their commitment to forward momentum, Goose continue to remind us that music isn’t simply played — it’s felt, lived, and shared.”
