If you met the US President. what would you say to him? N.B. I do swear (once) in this song towards the end....
Formed in late 2001, Goofer Dust are a five-piece acoustic band from Brighton, England. The four members come from very different, though complementary, musical backgrounds. Eclectism is very much the watch word when talking about their approach to music-making, but let's call it "Acoustic country blues meets jazz and country". Summing up the influences, there is a mixture of country blues (a la Kelly Joe Phelps, Mance Lipcomb & Eric Bibb), Tom Waits, as well as the country stylings of Gillian Welch and Dave Rawlings. Goofer Dust released a 3 track ep "Trading Faces" in August 2002 that was well received. "Blood's Turning Black" is their first album.Have you performed in front of an audience?yes, anywhere we're asked to. playing live is the lifeblood of this band. we all come from the blues/jazz tradition where live performance is the thing.
