New Video: “Striking Gold” by Gold & Marrow
Ottawa’s Gold & Marrow, formerly Shannon Rose and the Thorns, released a new video for their single “Striking Gold.”
The video puts Shannon Rose at the forefront, dancing and singing as the background changes from black to sunsets, from cityscapes to kaleidoscope-like images, to fireworks and more.
Rose looks almost ghostly due to overexposure. She appears haunting and powerful, someone has strongly affected her and she is not ready to let it go. “I have dreamed you would fail, but the shame pierces like a dirty nail,” she sings as explosions erupt behind her. Beautiful timing.
The dancy indie-pop track appears on the band’s new album, Forever, set to be officially released September 30. The video, as well as the album, was produced by the band’s guitar player Steve Matylewicz. Quite a luxury to have such a talent in-house. If the video isn’t enough and you would like to be mesmerized in person, catch Gold & Marrow with special guests The Visit at their album release party October 4th and the Blacksheep Inn.
