The Los Angeles based indie rockers, Golden State is set to self-release their debut full-length album titled Division on July 19th. Golden State will also have a concert at the Viper room on May 19th and on May 24th at Silverlake Lounge with more shows TBA according to a press release.

Golden State was formed from the ashes of GRUNDLER’s prior band, American Recordings’ Paloalto. After two Rick Rubin-produced albums, the industry began to change and false promises, lies and excuses quickly became the norm.  Scarred and defeated, it would take another four years for the quartet to come together with all the right players. Now all with the same direction, the music comes from a place of inspiration, a subconscious voice, a startling take on alternative rock, dazzled by horrors of the world but secure in human foundation.

“It’s that journey you have to take to redefine yourself,” explains GRUNDLER. “You go back to your roots and find that place you were before you started making music that was so exciting and organic. I lost my way and started believing what everyone else was telling me rather than just trusting what I do. I feel so much more confident in the music that I’m writing and the place we are because we’re making our own timeline and making the process happen. This time it is all sparked by the inspiration.”

One single off the album, All Roads Lead Home, has been featured as the title track for Luke Wilson's 2008 film, Henry Poole Is Here, on the trailer for "All Roads Lead Home", a movie with Morgan Freeman and Ashley Judd and has been aired on an episode of the Discovery Channel's show, Deadliest Catch"
