Goose have shared a new single, “Madhuvan,” which will appear on their forthcoming record Shenanigans Nite Club, due out June 4. The song spans ten minutes and features a lengthy improvisational section. Even with the double-digit minute runtime, the new single is a somewhat-truncated version of the live staple.
According to a press release, “‘Madhuvan’ references the story of Dhruva and his quest for enlightenment, originally written in the Bhagavata Purana. The song is an exploratory journey, examining life’s most beautiful offerings and most dangerous pitfalls.”
“The underlying idea is questioning what you’re pursuing and that, ultimately, true fulfillment often comes from something other than outer acquisition,” said guitarist and vocalist Rick Mitarotonda in a statement.
A live version of “Madhuvan,” recorded during Goose’s 2020 Goosemas show, appears on the B-side of their collaboration with the Relix Sessions vinyl series. For more information, click here.
Shananigans Nite Club marks Goose’s second studio album, following 2016’s Moon Cabin. The band shared two singles prior to “Madhuvan:” “Spirit of the Dark Horse” and “So Ready,” the latter of which featured an official music video.
