Jason Myles Goss

Jason Myles Goss Sings His Songs Like Someone Is Trying To Take Them Away From Him And Nowhere Is This More Apparent Than In His Stunning Second Album Another Ghost. Moving Between Love Ballads Dashboard Elegies And Wild-Eyed Pub Waltzes His Writing Evokes The Grace And Economy Of David Gray And His Voice Reverberates With The Earnest Intensity Of Ray Lamontagne Moving Tastefully Between The Plaintive And The Bold The Sweet And The Soulful The Ragged Testimonial And The Bittersweet Lullaby. Plain And Simply— Jason Is A Stand-Out. In A Sea Of Guitar Strumming Twenty-Somethings Singing About Lost Girlfriends And Late Nights Jason's Songs Resonate At A Much Deeper Level With Lyrics More Acutely Poetic And Stories That Pull At Something Underneath The Surface. "For Me A Great Song Always Finds A Creative Way To Point To Something Beyond Itself Something Subtle That Often Exists Between The Lines But That Continues To Pull At You Long After The Song Is Over." Recorded In An Old One-Room Barn In Grafton MA Another Ghost Is A Collection Of Songs Fashioned Together From The Remnants Of Small-Town Anywhere. Born And Raised In Quiet Massachusetts Mill Town This Is A World That Jason Knows All Too Well One Full Of Streetlights Wishing Wells Backyard Brawlers And Busted-Up Roads. Influenced By Early Morning Highway Drives And AM Radio Stations This Album Deals With Holding On To Those Things That Are Most Important Memories That We Relive Time And Time Again Which Revisit Us Like Ghosts. "I Wanted The Album To Feel Nostalgic And Also To Have An Eye Towards The Future With All The Uncertainty It Holds. The First Words Of The Entire Album In Twilight Serenade Are 'So Here's To You…' With The Idea Of Giving A Toast To All Those Things That Have Faded Away The Next Track Too Young To Lose Is About Making A Promise To Do What You Love Despite Where Ever That May Lead And Trying To Have Faith In Yourself."
