NO DAY LIKE TODAY, the new self-released EP from the stellar GOLDEN BLOOM continues the band's long tradition of producing nearly flawless music. Unlike previous efforts which have lived primarily in the realm of popular music, the new series of songs are more rock in their direction and a bit darker in tone. Beautiful, nevertheless, this effort marks a new age in the band's creativity.Golden Bloom was initially a solo effort for Shawn Fogel but has swelled to a full band. Those members and their time together have helped steer the direction of the band and these new songs.
In June of 2012, Golden Bloom live band members Jeff Patlingrao and Josh Cohen travelled to Shawn’s longtime vacation destination of Southwest Harbor, ME where they holed up in a cabin in the woods to work on a new batch of songs. Joined by newly added drummer Justin Hofmann, the quartet retreated to Tarquin Studios in Bridgeport, CT, a facility run by Peter Katis (The National, Interpol, Frightened Rabbit). They produced the sessions themselves with the help of engineer Greg Giorgio.“Many of the songs were arranged collaboratively in the studio,” Fogel says. “The spontaneous energy we generated carried over to the music.”
