Artist Spotlight: Such Gold

Closing out the week with a brand new installment of Artist Spotlight! Today, we venture on up to Rochester, NY and check out the energetic sounds of Such Gold. The band consists of Ben Kotin on lead vocals, Nate Derby on guitar, Skylar Sarkis on guitar and vocals, Jon Markson on bass, and Devan Bentley on drums. The band has an intense, hardcore sound similar to the likes of Four Year Strong with a pulsating and frenetic sound that reeks of grittiness and fervor with a strong musical mindset that serves the band well in the long run. I've heard of these guys previously by name, but didn't really know much about them musically, and I was thrilled with the band's organic musical approach by taking elements from some of their contemporaries, and making them into their own while retaining a consistent and authentic sound that is unlike anything currently out there today. A terrific and promising act that is definitely deserving of additional exposure right here on the blog. Some great tracks for you to check out from them include "Storytellers" and "Minstrels".

For more information on the guys in Such Gold, head on over to their Facebook page located here and see and listen for yourself what these guys are all about. You can stalk the guys on Twitter from over here and find out when the band will be stopping by your hometown with a concert appearance. Visit the band's official website here for a host of pertinent features related to the band, and check out their latest album "Misadventures", now available on iTunes and Spotify among a host of digital music platforms.
