Goose Release New Album & Video
Goose is celebrating today’s release of their eagerly anticipated fourth studio album, Everything Must Go, by lifting the curtain on a visually arresting official music video for the LP’s deeply moving title track. Directed and designed by award-winning animator Chris Hopewell (known for his distinctive work with Radiohead, The Killers, Run The Jewels, Father John Misty, and many more), and produced by Black Dog Films, the powerful visual premieres today on YouTube. Made using traditional stop motion over three weeks in Bristol, UK, “Everything Must Go” is marked by a striking sense of realness and authenticity ideally suited for the track, thanks in part to 90% of all the sets and scenery being fashioned from repurposed and recycled materials. All the trash and plastic waste used to build the sets was gathered in a beach clean near Bristol, then recycled after filming.
“I wanted to capture the feeling of hope within the track ‘Everything Must Go,’” says Chris Hopewell, “a feeling of elevation and that something good is about to happen. Like all good tales, our narrative follows an unlikely hero with little agency who must overcome overwhelming odds to reach their goal, but with hope, determination, and a little luck, they may just win through. We follow our character through an apocalyptic vision of our future world – she is seemingly the only living thing in this blasted, toxic wasteland. As the tale unfolds, she is forced to make the ultimate decision: self-survival or self-sacrifice. The message is a simple one – that against all odds, the acts of the individual, no matter how small or powerless, can make a difference.”

“Everything Must Go” is the opening song on the record and sets the musical tone for what’s about to unfold, showcasing Goose’s evolution in the studio. Textured loops and vocal effects build a rich sonic palette — a universe with a view — while singer/guitarist Rick Mitarotonda and keyboardist/guitarist Peter Anspach’s harmonies propel the song forward with emotional depth. The track culminates in a parade of propulsive drum fills and heavy guitar chords, a cathartic release that sets up and flows seamlessly into the album’s next tracks.
“When we went into the studio, I was drawn to an idea of taking the underlying rhythm of the song in a different direction than how we had been playing it live,” Mitarotonda says. “One night during tracking, producer D. James Goodwin started to chop up segments of the drums, turning ‘Everything Must Go’s’ straight groove into a frenetic, whirling electronic loop of broken drum fills.
“I was so moved when he started piecing it together — it felt so different and alive against the emotional palette of the song,” he continues. “We hadn’t had a title yet, and when I heard Dan beginning to make those cuts that night, something just clicked and there was a sudden instinct like oh, the record is called Everything Must Go.”
The song title became more than an album title, morphing into a mantra for the record.
“This idea of everything was resonant on many different levels, some of which were clear at the time, others less so. There had been a lot of building to get to this record, and a good amount of time had gone by; the impulse was to throw everything at it and wipe the slate clean in a sense, to open the way for new creative exploration,” Mitarotonda says. “For there to then be this big change in our lives and the life of the band added another depth to it. The record was a cathartic through line to the whole evolution, a place to put it all out there.”
Everything Must Go is available everywhere now via No Coincidence Records. Goose’s fourth studio LP and first new studio collection in nearly three years following 2022’s critically acclaimed Dripfield, the album marks both a statement of intent for Goose as well as an arrival of sorts — a journey for fans and newcomers alike through the group’s past, present, and infinite future. Produced once again by D. James Goodwin, Everything Must Go includes such extraordinary new tracks as the propulsive fan favorite, “Thatch,” the searching “Lead Up,” the breezy, atmospheric “Your Direction,” and euphoric first single, “Give It Time,” the latter two accompanied by official music videos streaming now at YouTube.
“This album shows a deep variety of different things we can do as a band,” says Anspach. “It’s full of different styles and moods with a little something for everyone. A bulk of the songs were written in early 2022, which was a very poignant and creative time for the band. I think very fondly about that winter tour when listening back to the full record. I personally feel that this is our strongest record yet, front to back. It feels great to get it out into the world and see what connections our listeners will have.”

Sara Bareilles Returns With New Album and Headline Tour Across North America This Fall
GRAMMY-winning, Tony and Emmy-nominated singer-songwriter and Epic Records recording artist Sara Bareilles sets her new album, Good Grief, for August 28—presave/preorder HERE. Alongside the announcement, Bareilles is debuting the album’s first single, “Home”—listen/share HERE. Bareilles will also make her long-awaited return to the stage this fall for her deeply personal Good Grief Tour, promoted by Live Nation.
Good Grief marks Bareilles’ seventh studio album and her first since 2019’s Grammy-winning Amidst the Chaos, opening a new chapter to her 20-year career. True to its title, the 14-track collection is a reckoning with loss, yet even its darkest moments are threaded with an insistent, luminous pull toward hope.
“This whole collection of songs felt like transmissions rather than a deliberate attempt to make sense of the world,” says Bareilles. “My deepest hope is that Good Grief provides some kind of comfort or catharsis.”
“Home,” the album’s first single, was inspired by a conversation between Stephen Colbert and Anderson Cooper about grief and loss on Cooper’s podcast. Bareilles shares, “It feels like an invitation and a tone setter for the specificity and depth of this record. It just feels really essential right now. In order for us as humans to really know and understand each other, we have to listen to each other’s stories.”
Bareilles will also make her long-awaited return to the stage this fall for her deeply personal Good Grief Tour. Kicking off September 9 in Boston, this trek marks a triumphant new chapter for an artist at the height of her storytelling powers. The shows promise a blend of raw, vulnerable new tracks from Good Grief, alongside songs that have defined her career and connection to fans. Bringing her signature wit and authenticity to iconic theaters in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco and more, Bareilles hopes to invite fans into an intimate space of connection, truth-telling, joy and some good grief. Tickets will be available starting with artist, Verizon and CITI pre-sales on Monday, June 8 (details below for exact times), with general onsale beginning on Wednesday, June 10 at 10 A.M. local time. See below for full tour routing and visit sarabmusic.com for more information.
Good Grief spans remarkable thematic ground, all of it rooted in Bareilles’ own experience—from intimate tributes to lost friends, to defiant anthems for women’s rights, to unexpected moments of lightness found in the darkest of times. Produced by Bareilles herself, the album was mostly recorded over six days at Dreamland Recording Studios in Woodstock, NY, alongside a band of longtime collaborators: drummer Charley Drayton, guitarist Butterfly Boucher, keyboardist Misty Boyce, bassist Solomon Dorsey, multi-instrumentalist Rob Moose and co-producer, recording engineer and mixer Jonathan Low. Later sessions took place alongside co-producer Aaron Dessner at his Long Pond Studios in the Hudson Valley, NY, with assists from engineer and mixer Bella Blasko. The collection also features contributions from Brandi Carlile, Andrea Gibson, Ingrid Michaelson, Joe Tippett and Megan Falley.
The making of the album was captured in the documentary, Sara Bareilles: Good Grief, which will make its world premiere at the Tribeca Festival this week. The film offers an intimate, unfiltered portrait of Bareilles’ return to the recording studio with close friends for the first time in seven years—a cinematic document of her creative process that becomes a profoundly personal, ultimately hopeful meditation on loss, grief and the power of music to heal. A masterclass in creativity, community and vulnerability, the documentary serves as a reminder of music’s extraordinary power to connect us to ourselves and to each other.
The album, tour and documentary add to a landmark year for Bareilles. Her song “Salt Then Sour Then Sweet,” co-written with Brandi Carlile and the late poet and activist Andrea Gibson, appears in the Peabody Award-winning documentary Come See Me in the Good Light, on which Bareilles also serves as executive producer. The song was shortlisted for Best Original Song and the film for Best Documentary at the 98th Academy Awards. The track also appears on Good Grief.
Bareilles is an award-winning singer, songwriter, actor, producer, activist, and New York Times best-selling author. A two-time GRAMMY winner, she has also earned three Tony and three Primetime Emmy nominations. Bareilles has sold more than three million albums and 15 million singles in the U.S., with over 3.5 billion streams worldwide. On Broadway, Bareilles composed the music and lyrics for Waitress, later stepping into the lead role both on Broadway and the West End. Her additional theater credits include her Tony-nominated performance as the Baker’s Wife in Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s Into the Woods and a song on the Tony Award-nominated score for SpongeBob SquarePants. Her on-screen work includes an Emmy Award-nominated performance as Mary Magdalene in NBC’s Jesus Christ Superstar Live! and her role as Dawn Solano in the Emmy-nominated musical comedy series Girls5eva. She is also currently developing a musical theater adaptation of Meg Wolitzer’s bestselling novel The Interestings.
