From powerful rock anthems “Far Away”, “Old School” and Burning Hearts”, to poetic ballad track “Shanda Amadeo”, the new album from the Greg Golden Band has something in store for everyone. You can download the album now via iTunes or shop.greggoldenband.com.
The Greg Golden Band was formed by Greg Golden, who is well known in the Reno, NV area as the owner of premier musical instrument and weaponry shop Bizarre Guitar & Guns. Golden has sold guitars to many famous musicians such as Carlos Santana, Eddie Van Halen & Merle Haggard.
Golden started the business in 1974, after coming off the road touring with his band at the time, Mourning Sun. Golden started buying guitars while on tour and when he returned to Reno he sold the instruments out of the back of his van. Soon, he would build his iconic shop on Oddie Blvd. Greg has amassed one of the most impressive collections of rare and vintage Les Paul Goldtops in the world. He displays part of his collection downstairs at Bizarre Guitar inside “The Vault”, which holds roughly 500 guitars, in addition to over 5,000 contained within the entire store.
The Greg Golden Band plans on re-entering the studio this winter to record again with Frank Hannon.
