Goose Share New Song 'Arrow' Ahead of New Album

Connecticut rockers Goose have shared "Arrow," available now at all DSPs and streaming services. The official music video is streaming now via YouTube.

An explosive staple of their live setlist since its December 2019 debut, the long-awaited studio version of "Arrow" marks the latest track release from the band's upcoming new album, Dripfield, due everywhere via No Coincidence Records on Friday, June 24. Pre-orders are available now. A limited-edition double LP printed on 180g pink drip vinyl with a 12-page booklet is available for pre-order exclusively at the official Goose webstore.

Written by singer/guitarist Rick Mitarotonda, "Arrow" captures Goose's commanding display of fluid musicianship and creative intentionality with rich, soaring melodies that shine brightly alongside pulsing drums, and saxophone courtesy of Stuart Bogie (Arcade Fire, The Hold Steady). American Songwriter premiered the song earlier today.

"'Arrow' has always been a puzzle for us," says multi-instrumentalist Peter Anspach. "It took us months of messing with the arrangement to finally dial it in. And then in classic 'Arrow' form, once we hit the studio, it changed it again. The resulting version was created the day we recorded it and was one of most exciting days for us all. During the opening hits, we all took pots and pans from the kitchen and just dropped them on the ground of the studio to create a wilder, more outrageous impact."

Produced and engineered by D. James Goodwin (Bob Weir, Kevin Morby) at The ISOKON in Woodstock, NY, Dripfield includes the recently released "Hungersite," "Borne," and "Dripfield," all available now for streaming and download. Official music videos are streaming now at the official Goose YouTube channel.

Goose - who recently made their triumphant arena debut with a sold-out performance at Uncasville, CT's own Mohegan Sun Arena - will celebrate Dripfield this summer with their biggest headline tour to date, getting underway May 27 and 28 with a two-night stand at New Haven, CT's Westville Music Bowl and then traveling through late August.
