AS THEY PREPARE FOR NORTH AMERICAN FESTIVAL DEBUT AT
ALL POINTS WEST ON SATURDAY, AUGUST 1
DIESEL RADIO AND NEW YORK ALTERNATIVE ROCK STATION 101.9 WRXP
Hailed by SPIN as "breathlessly experimental" with “sweeping orchestral rock,” BLACK GOLD’s RUSH has received critical praise from People, URB.COM, MetroMix, Big Shot and more. Currently, the album track “Plans & Reveries” is being serviced to alternative radio throughout the country. The video for the keenly constructed, keys-driven song–“…about the moment when you come to and realize what you had and what you’ve lost” (per lead singer Eric Ronick)–won mtvU’s weekly online competition “The Freshmen” earlier this year. Other standout tracks from RUSH include the infectious analog synth strut of “Detroit”–an iTunes “Single of the Week” last fall–and “Shine,” currently spinning on New York alternative rock station 101.9 WRXP.
BLACK GOLD—multi-instrumentalists ERIC RONICK and THAN LUU—is set to perform live on WRXP this Thursday, July 23 at 9am EST on “The Rock Show with Matt Pinfield and Leslie Fram” in advance of their All Points West appearance. In addition to WRXP, the band will host and perform during a live broadcast on Diesel:U:Music Radio this Friday, July 24 at 12pm EST, which can be streamed online at: www.dieselumusic.com. Also look for the band’s appearance on the nationally syndicated Fox television show “Fearless TV” later this summer.
