Album Notes

The Good North have firmly established themselves as one of the must-see buzz bands in Boston and New York. They have relentlessly played club and college dates across the northeast; their stunning debut An Explanation has become a critics' favorite; their music has played on over a hundred radio stations, including influential K-Rock (NYC) and WBCN (Boston).

TGN have pioneered a new genre in rock -- combining the lush hooks of Britpop with an aggressive edge that is unmistakably American. The Boston Globe concurs that TGN's artful attack "teems with densely ringing electric guitars, grand melodic gestures, and a panoramic sweep of space and sound."

The future looks bright for the band. Having shared stages with such luminaries as Ted Leo/Pharmacists, The Dismemberment Plan, Elefant, Ash, and Idlewild -- TGN are now seeking out the spotlight in their own right, as the praise and the dynamic and dramatic songs continue to roll in.
