Following two strong studio releases, tours with King King and Gun and a main stage appearance at the last Ramblin' Man Festival, AUSTIN GOLD were causing a stir. Then Covid frakked the world but the guys remained agile and adapted and hunkered down to write and record new album, Those City Lights.

Classic Rock magazine have given glowing reviews of ‘Before Dark Clouds‘ and their self-titled vinyl-only mini-album ‘Austin Gold’. These coupled with regular plays on BBC Radio 2’s Rock Show and Planet Rock Radio, have catapulted the English quartet firmly into the limelight. Now fans eagerly consuming their new release, which, cements their position as an emerging hard rock talent in the UK.

The band of David James Smith (vocals & guitar), Lee Churchill (bass), Adam Leon (keyboards) and James Pepper (drums), have been building a reputation as one of the best live acts around. Their melting pot of influences come together to create something that is really very special. From heavy guitar riffs, to the most delicate heart-felt ballads; from atmospheric sonic landscapes, to hook-driven melodies; this is a band that deserves to be heard. Armed with their scintillating live show, Austin Gold are selling out venues and in huge demand for festivals all over the world.
