Goose reveals new album “Big Modern!” and releases new single
Goose recently announced the upcoming release of their newest album titled ‘Big Modern!’ through No Coincidence Records, scheduled to hit shelves on June 12. This exciting news comes after a series of mysterious hints dropped by the band, including an amusing video featuring actor Jake Lacy, known for his work on popular TV shows like “The White Lotus” and “Girls.” Last week, Lacy was spotted courtside at the New York Knicks vs. Chicago Bulls game at Madison Square Garden with the members of Goose. The band was all decked out in bright yellow hoodies spelling out “FACE,” a nod to the lyrics of their beloved track “Big Modern!” This playful marketing stunt followed weeks of speculation sparked by guerrilla marketing campaigns across major US cities, teasing the phrase “BIG MODERN!” and an interactive website full of Morse code messages and fan interactions on social media.
Their upcoming album, ‘Big Modern!’ promises to take listeners on a journey through the chaotic landscape of our fast-paced, digitally-saturated society. The album’s lead single, “Good2B,” sets the tone with its infectious disco-funk vibes, featuring lively congas, groovy basslines, and catchy lyrics celebrating all things people, places, and experiences. Despite its upbeat tempo and infectious rhythms, “Good2B” manages to capture a sense of unease, hinting at the fleeting nature of pleasure in a world where constant stimulation and endless distractions threaten to overshadow real human connection.
According to Rick Mitarotonda, the driving force behind Goose, “‘Good2B,’ and Big Modern! as a whole, deal with the occasional state of flow amidst absurdity.” The album explores the exhilarating highs and the inevitable lows of our hyperconnected, convenience-driven existence, asking poignant questions about the sustainability of our current lifestyle. In a world filled with instant gratification and limitless distractions, ‘Big Modern!’ delves into the underlying tensions between pleasure and impermanence, inviting listeners to reflect on the true nature of their desires and motivations.
‘Big Modern!’ promises to be a sonic journey through a diverse array of musical styles and influences, showcasing Goose’s versatility and musical evolution. Featuring 15 dynamic tracks that traverse heartland rock ballads, jazzy interludes, and synth-heavy anthems, this album is a testament to the band’s creative range and experimental spirit. With a unique blend of pop sensibilities, electrifying guitar riffs, and intricate orchestration, Goose invites listeners to step into their immersive world of sound, where every note is a glimpse into the ceaseless motion of modern life.
To celebrate the release of ‘Big Modern!’, Goose will be embarking on a world tour starting in April 2026. The tour kicks off in Asheville, NC and will take the band across the United States, with notable stops in Fort Lauderdale, FL, New Orleans, LA, and a return to Austin, TX. Following their US tour, Goose will headline the Viva El Gonzo festival in San José del Cabo, Mexico, followed by a European and UK tour in May 2026. This international tour will feature performances at iconic venues such as Electric Brixton in London and the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado, solidifying Goose’s status as one of the most exciting live acts in today’s music scene.
Furthermore, Goose will be donating $1 from every ticket sold on their tour to the Western Sun Foundation (WSF), a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting grassroots initiatives in the cities they visit. For fans looking to experience Goose’s eclectic blend of musical styles and infectious energy live, this upcoming tour promises to be a must-see event for music lovers worldwide.
