Soul Bender, sees Gogo back in the studio that produced Skeleton Key and Halfway to Memphis with old friend and fabulous engineer Rick Salt handing the technology, buttons and liquor cabinet. This, no compromise, recording features a new found direction for Gogo's voice and a return to the blistering guitar solos that he loves so much. Currently touring in support of this release - make sure you catch him live in a venue near you.
Different Views, Gogo definitely had some unique sights to inspire him during the recording process, for this, his 10th album. Instead of the usual confines of your typical recording studio, the bulk of the album was once again recorded at his home - overlooking the 160-acre Christmas tree farm and forest that make up the Gogo family compound.
Acoustic, another Juno nominated album, was recorded at David's home in between his extensive touring and offers fans an intimate and interesting look at the acoustic side of his talents as part of the "Official Bootleg Series – Volume 2." The Cd features the rich tones of David's 1930 National Steel guitar as well as his 1915 Gibson and a modern day 12-string.
David Gogo's eighth album, entitled Vibe, is an all-original affair with a unique blend of songs written with the likes of Tom Wilson, Craig Northey (The Odds/Colin James) and John Capek, who has penned the hit "Rhythm of My Heart" for Rod Stewart. Vibe showcases Gogo's newfound vocal strengths, on songs like "I'll Do Anything" and "300 Pound Shoes", which on this release, match his profound skill on guitar.
The special "Live At Deer Lake - Official Bootleg", a live recording of songs mostly found on Skeleton Key, was nominated for a Juno Award in Canada. Yes, the performance did take place just outside Vancouver in Deer Lake, British Columbia.
Skeleton Key expanded Gogo's horizons into great new and exciting territory. The CD featured three singles that were played coast-to-coast on Canadian Rock radio. Halfway to Memphis is Gogo's first studio recording dedicated to the electric blues genre. Dine Under the Stars is a live rockin' blues CD party while Bare Bones is an acoustic blues tour de force. Change of Pace is a rock blues CD that had commercial success at rock radio in Canada when it was released in 2000 through the Top 40 single - "Sad & Lonely".
