FUN FACTS 

​

• Billy Libby (the man behind Fort Gorgeous) produces his own music.

• The new EP (Retirement Part One) also features Kirk Schoenherr (Chet Faker) on vocal and guitar.

• Billy also tours as a guitarist for Ingrid Michaelson.

• Favourite place on planet earth: Most likely Brooklyn where Fort Gorgeous is based.

​

'Goldmine' the new single from Fort Gorgeous gets straight to the point. The song begins with a stirring and emotive a cappella vocal duet, before opening up with an ever expanding range of ambient and pulsing synths.

​

The song has a dark almost sarcastic feeling to it in places, which is reinforced by the fantastic and thought-provoking lyrics. 

​

Billy really exhibits his songwriting and production strengths, keeping the listener fully engaged the whole journey as the song builds to the brilliant lead guitar part towards the end.

​

Being a Radiohead fan, I really enjoy the similar vibe that I feel that Goldmine brings in places, especially the awesome chorus. The whole EP is well worth a listen, showcasing Billy's clearly evident talent.
