About the Artist

The Goodstock Project is the codename for an experimental collaboration started in the first lockdown of Spring 2020. The idea being to prove whether it’s possible – if everyone can agree on an arrangement of a song, and have a solid click-track to work to – to record without even being in the same room, recording weeks apart with each individual engineering their own track, with no overall strategy. To provide a bit of added challenge and to increase the feeling of togetherness, despite being holed up separately, the recording of their own part was also filmed (nothing more sophisticated than a phone) so each could see the other at work, just as it would be in the rehearsal room. Possible? The answer is a resounding yes, and the first fruit of that collaboration was the audio & video track, Hotel, which Jon (bass), Ol (guitar), and Ben (drums) recorded first, and then June overlaid vocals and harmonies a little while later. 5 more tracks followed and resulted in The Goodstock Project’s debut EP ‘Remote’ which was released on October 1st 2022. Following the release of the first singles ‘Bruised’ and ‘Be The One’, they’re currently promoting a third tune – ‘This Rain’. In between recording EPs, the band decided to have a crack at 'Bring It On Home To Me', just for a bit of fun. However, it turned out very well. So well, in fact, that they sent it to Sam Cooke's record label (ABKCO) who gave them approval to release it. 'Bring It On Home To Me' is available to stream on all platforms and to watch on YouTube.
