Gold Motel with The Noise FM

Doors Open at 7:30 PM

With GOLD MOTEL, it"s always summer, the bags are always packed, and the car is always running. Beneath tight pop hooks and warm melodies, GOLD MOTEL"s songs are infused with joyous exuberance as well as sweet melancholy. The ten tracks on GOLD MOTEL's debut album Summer House are snapshots of dreaming, transient youth in constant motion - driving down desert highways, watching fireworks from the boardwalk, wandering the city in an endless summer but, in the end, always searching for the safety of home, friends, and love.

Formed in 2005 by brothers Alex and Austin Ward, The Noise FM's music has earned favorable comparisons to the melodic, beat-driven alt-rock of Muse, The Killers, and Bloc Party. The band released the full-length "Dream of the Attack" in 2008 and immediately received critical and commercial success. The song "Simple Simone" found its way onto the soundtrack for the videogame SBK 09, songs "Iron Lu...ng" and "Simple Simone" were featured in Fox College Sports Best of 2009, and "Only Human" was placed in the world-wide smash game Tap Tap Revenge 3 for iPhone. In 2010, the band was named one of the top 25 artists to watch by influential music site Indie-Music.com and received the award for "Best Indie-Rock Band" by Kansas City, Missouri's premiere entertainment magazine, The Pitch.
