May 26, 2016, 8 years ago
Gone Is Gone, the new “supergroup” featuring members of Mastodon, Queens Of The Stone Age, and At The Drive-In, have released a video for the track “Starlight”, featured on their debut self-titled EP, out on July 8th.
Gone Is Gone - Troy Sanders (Mastodon), Troy Van Leeuwen (QOTSA), Tony Hajjar (At The Drive-In), and Mike Zarin - made their live debut on April 27th at the Dragonfly in Los Angeles.
What was once thought a distant idea, is now reality. It began when members Tony Hajjar and Mike Zarin were writing music for film trailers and they realized they had created a sound that needed a life outside of that medium. It needed a band. Fast forward through some phone calls and drinks: Troy Van Leeuwen was in. The trio met and wrote an EP within the first several sessions, but were still in need of the right vocalist. Upon first listen, Troy Sanders understood the vision and flew to Los Angeles to write and record vocals on the spot. Introducing, Gone Is Gone.
