Drawing inspiration from the mountains around them to create energetic, boot-stomping music, Goldie and the Grindstones are a genre-bending coalescence of folk, rock, pop and jazz. The songs created by this powerful group of six feature the soaring, sultry vocals of Chelsea Hackett, the soulfully vintage acoustic guitar and gritty vocals of Chris Fogler, the swooning and playful tenor sax of Quin Jackson, the screaming blues-soaked guitar of Dan Thurnhoffer, the booming upright bass and baritone vocals of David Keller and the heartbeating, boot-stomping percussion of Sam Krause. The combination of these six talents delivers powerful, moving melody built upon driven, dance worthy grooves.

First and foremost, at the heart of their music is the friendship that the band was founded upon. The joy of playing together is what drives Goldie and the Grindstones to keep creating, experimenting, and ultimately performing. Audiences will feel the love shared between the group; infectious energy and excitement pour from fingers and vocal cords, you’ll find it hard not to dance along.

“Music is a unifier of people; it can create joy and togetherness when these things are in scarcity. We see so much divisiveness today and we aim to combat this with our songwriting, unifying strangers through music, through dance, through joy. Our songs are a representation of joyful noise, of heartbreaking lows, of love, of the relatability of the human condition. We’re glad you’re along for the ride.”
