Darius Koski’s diverse new album, What Was Once Is By And Gone, comes out in just two weeks, and is up for pre-order now!
You can listen to the second single, the Americana roots-based album opener “Black Sheep,” below. Here, you’ll hear wisps of The Kinks and shades of Johnny Cash, specifically during his acclaimed American Recording series. “Since I was a little kid, I’ve always listened to every genre of music,” says Koski, noting that his genre-less writing approach has long been embraced by his beloved punk band, Swingin’ Utters. “We’d always have one song on the album that was a little bit out there,” says Koski, taking pride in the fact that he’s been writing songs that divert from people’s preconceived notions for his entire career.
You’ll be able to hear Darius Koski’s latest opus, What Was Once Is By And Gone, live this November, as he’ll be touring with a full band opening for the Swingin’ Utters, and tour support by San Diego’s Western Settings. Dates and info can be found here.
