"The universe told us a few times along the way that maybe we shouldn’t make the record."

In the Shade of the Living Light, by Gold Dust 8 track album

New @golddust.bandcamp.com record that’s out today rips really hard. Sort of a 90s take on the 60s, J Mascis and the dude from Cornershop guest on it just so you know the vibe. Jangly big melodies and major riffage. Plus the lead singer was a record store clerk when I lived in the Pioneer Valley

Gold Dust “In The Light Of Living Shade” Psychedelic plucking a go-go on mesmerising collection with special guests. You’ve got to be a respected musician if you can have Dinosaur Jr supremo J Mascis guest on your new album – and when he does so it’s on electric sitar. Yet that’s exactly what Western Massachusetts musician Stephen Pierce has managed to achieve with his third album – his first fronting a four piece band.
