'Get Over It' is the debut UK single release from Solid Gold, purveyors of a new breed of synth-psych. Fresh from playing at the West Rocks CMJ party (New York), the 3-piece from Minneapolis are causing a wave of excitement throughout the A&R fraternity through their breathtaking live shows. 'Get Over It' is the lead track from the upcoming debut album Bodies of Water, recorded over the last 12 months in locations as diverse as abandoned farmhouses, city basements and a cabin on a frozen lake. 'Get Over It' will be released as a limited edition 7" on 8th December, individually numbered; featuring unique sleeves hand-painted by the band. US synth- psych trio Solid Gold brew up a potent heady mixture of memorable pop hooks, warm synths and dreamy lysergic vocals powered along with a precise & liquid funk. They won the 'Lets Get Physical' contest thrown by WeSC and Vice magazine last year, resulting in them being flown to London to headline the WeSC/Vice event at The Old Blue Last. From there they flew on to Iceland to headline the opening night of last years Airwaves Festival. After turning heads at SXSW earlier this year, they were hand picked to support the Ting Tings in their home town of Minneapolis. Solid Gold will shortly be announcing a full UK tour. http://www.myspace.com/solidgoldband | |
