When I finally came to the conclusion that I wanted to name my new project Almost Gold, I shared it with a few of my friends. One of them told me that it was the true cynic in me showing through. The funny thing about that is, I kind of thought it revealed the budding optimist. Maybe they thought I was being tongue in cheek about pseudo success from my former band, but in my own mind, I had new songs, new life, and new opportunities that excited me greatly. I guess if there is one truth realized in this type of exchange there's no escaping who you really are.

But with the realization that there is no escape from your true identity, comes an acceptance that those who embrace it will be down until the bitter end. And with that revelation, I bring you the rest of Almost Gold in the form of Sean Mulligan, Daniel Flink, and Michael Rogers. I draw from whatever source of inspiration is at my disposal, and with these three individuals nearest and dearest, I draw a great deal. I couldn't/wouldn't do it without them. Enjoy the tunes. We're not trying to change the world, just trying to change yours.
