   About OAK & GORSKI




THE NEW ALBUM, OUT NOW!
$10 plus shipping - click album cover to order via the Oak & Gorski Store

Oak and Gorski - "Good Advice, Bad Advice"
Little Miss Blue
Pretty Far Gone
Turn of Events
Sit With Me
When the Evening Comes
Messin' Around
Suffocate Me
Steady Heart
One Last Thought
Age Old Refrain
Libretto

produced by will golden and al sgro
mixed by bryan cook





"Good Advice, Bad Advice is 11 songs’ worth of gently catchy, sneakily addictive acoustic-based pop/rock, bound together with steel strings and webs of ringing harmonies."

- Popdose.com





Ken Oak and Ed Gorski have been making music together since the fall of 2004. Their last musical vehicle was the "Ken Oak Band", which would have been more accurately defined as a duo since there were only two of them. Now these crafty lads have renamed themselves "Oak and Gorski" and then recorded a new album with a full band. Brilliant!

All naming issues aside, Oak and Gorski are back with a vengeance. For their latest release the pair have teamed up with production duo Will Golden and Al Sgro (Meiko, Eric Hutchinson, Gary Jules) to create an album that achieves the potential their previous work hinted at. Good Advice, Bad Advice represents a sonic departure from the duo's earlier material while staying true to the organic string based sound that the band has become known for. Golden and Sgro provide the rhythm section on the new record along with Fil Krohnengold on piano and organ.

Oak and Gorski's music has been featured in the Dreamworks film She's the Man and CSI: New York. They have been written up by Billboard Magazine, self booked 5 national tours, and sold over 25,000 records independently.
