The Eastside Shake offers the kind of...piano-based pop that draws you in to its spacious environs and massages your head with subtle effects and opposing colorations. This is the second release from LA-based singer/songwriter john gold, who has an effectively plaintive voice that paints broad, sorrowful strokes over these thoughtful, baroque arrangements. Its a soulful collection of heady urban troubadour musings. Effectively simple at times, lush and epic at others, strangely inviting an ELO-meets-Squeeze-as-interpreted-by-Elliott Smith comparison. But you want to praise him for being what sounds like his painfully honest self. The LA Weekly refers to this quietly gifted singer-songwriter as having a semisweet chocolate baritone and a slew of idiosyncratic arrangements, all of which we think are beautiful.
