While organic, heartwarming melodies still anchor their compelling sound, Slingshot has injected a bit of that ol' punk spirit and aggression - not to mention a heaping does of excitement and fun - into the mix...and the result tender as it is pulse-quickening. Rushing, fuzzy waves of Carly Comando's nimble keys collide with the explosive drum work of Tom Patterson, triggering touching songs about friendship, community, living on the road and ultimately, following your dreams. Golden Ghost is a unique mix of sweet indie-pop melodies and DIY-inspired abandon, and Slingshot Dakota's music has never felt so honest moving.
