(February 26, 2020) The band Neighborhood Goliath made its name as an alternative rock band since it hit the scene in 2015 with their debut EP, Between Satellites & Settling. However, the band ventures out of that lane with its latest recording, “Dark Stars,” a track brings some horn play and thus an element of R&B to their sound.
The band can make that move because of the power packed vocals of Trevor Dion Nichols. Nichols showed that he possessed alt-rock chops on the group’s previous two projects. Here, on “Dark Stars,” the Neighborhood Goliath front man shows that he can step up and caress a mid-tempo ballad when guitarist Andrew Cooksley steps back and allows Nichols and his voice to move firmly into the main stage. Check out the video and single for “Dark Stars” here.
