Seattle’s My Goodness have announced a new EP due on in November. The EP, entitled Islands is set to be released November 4th via Votiv Music. My Goodness have not released a new full release since 2014’s Shiver + Shake. Along with announced the EP, the band has streamed the titular track from the EP. Shiver + Shake saw My Goodness harnessing their addictive blues rock n’ roll and creating huge tracks from it. Although limited to two members at the time, the band was able to make a release that sounded both full and over flowing with contagious tracks.
My Goodness issued a state in regards to Islands, “The song is a great example of what we worked to accomplish with this new record and our live show.” This comes from Andy Lum, the drummer, continuing, “With Shiver + Shake, our live show was almost identical to the album experience, whereas now we’re adding a ton of energy and expanding the sound of the new songs when we play them on stage.” Adding two new members to the band also increased the overall creative capacity. “We had no limits in the studio and could strive for something new in every song,” Lum adds. “It’s also really rewarding when you make music with people that have different influences and style, you’re always learning.”
