Goren Traces His Musical Trajectory Back To When He And His Parents Lived In A Small Apartment On New York’s Upper West Side. He Was Noodling Around On A Toy Keyboard At The Age Of Three And By Five The Budding Musician Was Listening To Oscar Peterson And Thelonious Monk And Playing Jazz. Shortly After They Relocated To Southern California When He Was Eight He Was Looking Online For A Trombone Player He Liked Named J.J. Johnson. He Typed “B.B.” Instead And Discovered A Video Of B.B King Albert Collins Jeff Beck Buddy Guy And Eric Clapton Playing “Sweet Little Angel.” “I Was Moved By The Energy And Their Charisma ” Goren Recalls. “It Was Deep And Soulful – It Got To My Heart.”
“Though I’ve Often Said That The Soul Of My Music Is Tied To The Blues Instead Of Growing And Evolving From Blues To Rock I Listened To Stevie Wonder D’Angelo Amy Winehouse Donny Hathaway Prince And Others. Later I Listened To Rock Greats Like Jimi Hendrix Maroon 5 Arctic Monkeys Radiohead And Imagine Dragon As Well As Pop Like The Weeknd J. Cole And Drake. I Want To Be That Unique Artist Who Bridges Rock Pop And Soul With A Lot Of Other Styles.”
“The Music I Make Is Just Me It’s Who I Am And I See Myself As A No Boundaries Kind Of Artist Bringing Elements Of Everything I Love And Enjoy Into The Music I Naturally Compose And Play ” Says Goren.
