Simple Sucker LP Out 9/25
Brooklyn-based trio Gooseberry channel alternative rock, indie, and blues into a sharp, swaggering sound that recently earned them a coveted spot in Guitar World‘s “15 Hotshot NYC Guitarists You Should Know.” Joining indie standouts like Horsegirl and Geese on the list, the band continues to cement its place as one of New York City’s most exciting rising acts.
Following successful winter and spring tours, more than 80K+ monthly Spotify listeners, and major festival appearances, Gooseberry now enters a bold new chapter with the announcement of its sophomore LP, Simple Sucker, arriving September 25, 2026.
Today, the band shares new single, “Fault Lines,” and announces a fall European tour with dates across the UK, Germany, and Austria.
A heavy-hitting, angst-fueled anthem steeped in classic rock, “Fault Lines” finds Gooseberry embracing one of the heaviest sounds in its catalog. “You know that meme where Squidward watches from his window as SpongeBob and Patrick have all kinds of fun? That’s essentially what this song is about. It’s about picking up your life and leaving a place you’ve known forever—say, New York City—and relocating 300-plus miles away to a city that couldn’t feel more different,” frontman Asa Daniels explains.
“From afar, all you can do is rot away watching on social media as other bands play your favorite venues back home—shows you can’t be at. In many ways, this song is about homesickness, but also about how isolation can completely distort your perspective. Musically, it’s one of the heaviest songs in the Gooseberry catalog, and it owes a great debt to Soundgarden.”
Comprising of Asa Daniels (guitar, vocals), Evin Rossington (drums), and Will Hammond (bass), Gooseberry have become a staple of NYC’s music scene, headlining iconic venues like Bowery Ballroom, and supporting notable touring acts such as Ringo Starr, BabyJake, and Tanner Usrey.
In their new era, Simple Sucker, Gooseberry explores what it means to be the perfect fool in today’s world. As Daniels explains, “there are songs where we’re poking fun at people for being fools; fools in love; fools who think they can impart wisdom for change; fools ourselves, longing to return to days gone by.”Across the album, the band turns a wry, self-aware lens on bigotry, fear, arrogance, nostalgia, and obliviousness, pairing irony-laced, shout-along hooks with explosive guitars to highlight the absurdity—and humanity—of it all.
