Dream 3 Tour

GOON
Goon began in 2015 as singer and multi-instrumentalist, Kenny Becker’s, solo project,releasing a compilation of his best home recordings, the 2016 EP Dusk of Punk. With a full bandin tow, Goon released the band’s first full-length, 2019’s Heaven is Humming on PartisanRecords. Becker recruited a new band—Andy Polito on drums, Dillon Peralta on guitar, andTamara Simons on bass—and recorded the self-released Paint By Numbers 1. A second LP, Hourof Green Evening, soon followed, as well as another EP, Red Ladder, in 2022.To support Hour of Green Evening, Goon hit the road hard, touring and playing showswith Built to Spill, Jadu Heart, Slow Pulp, Teethe, Squirrel Flower, and many others. In themidst of all this, the band signed with Philadelphia label Born Losers and began recording theirnext LP with Claire Morison at Wild Horizon Sound in Los Angeles. Dream 3 melds theintimate, lo-fi stylings of Goon with the live-band sound of Hour of Green Evening; a veteranband exploring every aspect of their sound, pushing themselves into new musical and emotionalrealms.“I began this record so excited,” says Becker. “The songwriting was less scripted, lettingme loosen up the reins a little and follow whatever idea seemed most interesting. It started off asa really joyful recording process. Then came the most devastating time of my life.”The result is an often darker, more introspective album, built on personal loss and thechaotic crumbling of the outside world, without losing Goon’s signature sense of strangeness andwonder. Weaving lyrics about personal and ecological collapse with references to baseball,aliens, and Tony Soprano, the record expands Goon’s sound while holding close to the coreidentity of the band. Dream 3 offers an exquisitely crafted sonic world, one full of heartbreak andpain, but also brimming with color and life, the hope of better days to come....
