Brooklyn-based trio Gooseberry, formed in 2019, melds alternative rock, indie, and blues to craft their distinctive sound. Comprising Asa Daniels (guitar, vocals), Evin Rossington (drums), and Will Hammond (bass), the band has racked up hundreds of thousands of streams and has garnered praise from editorial stalwarts Under the Radar, Ones to Watch, and more. They’ve become integral to NYC’s music scene, performing at venues like Baby’s All Right and the Knitting Factory, as well as alongside notable touring acts BabyJake and Maybird.
In August 2023, Gooseberry released their sophomore effort, Validate Me, a testament to an alternative rock sound that is uniquely their own. Following the release, they embarked on The Validation Tour, including a packed-out headline show at NYC’s iconic Bowery Ballroom. With Validate Me now boasting over 500K streams on Spotify and growing monthly listenership, Gooseberry continues to surge in popularity.
In April, Gooseberry announced their debut full-length album, All My Friends Are Cattle. They delivered the first taste of the LP in the form of gritty alt-rock single Kikiyon. Powered by 90s alt influences (Nirvana, Soundgarden, Radiohead), this debut full-length record represents Gooseberry’s most ambitious project yet and showcases the expansive distance they cover, from punch-you-in-the-mouth punk rock to lyrically-driven singer-songwriter to atmospheric prog rock.
