Goose to Release New Studio Album, ‘Big Modern!’ in June
Goose will release their sixth full-length studio album, Big Modern!, on June 12 via their own No Coincidence Records. The 15-track LP was announced following several cryptic teases from the quartet, including a surprise video posted to social media last Friday starring Jake Lacy. The actor, known for his work on The White Lotus, The Office and Girls, then accompanied the band as they sat courtside at the following night’s New York Knicks vs. Chicago Bulls game at New York’s Madison Square Garden. Lacy sat between the four members of Goose, each of whom wore bright yellow hoodies spelling out “FACE, ”a key lyric from their new record’s title track, “Big Modern!”
Goose’s guerrilla marketing campaign also included prominent signage in major US cities featuring the words “BIG MODERN!” along with a BIGMODERN.com website displaying Morse code for mysterious phrases and interactive messaging based on Goose fans’ thoughts across social media. The record arrives a year after the musicians’ released two full-length efforts, Everything Music Go and Chain Yer Dragon, in 2025. The making of those records was profiled in a 2025 Relix cover story.
While describing their new studio effort, the band said BIG MODERN! is “a fully immersive world of sound that ingeniously captures what it feels like to move through today’s overstimulated, hyperconnected society.” Along with the album’s official announcement, Goose also dropped, “Good2B,” a disco-funk-laced new single from the set.
“‘Good2B,’ and BIG MODERN! as a whole, deal with the occasional state of flow amidst absurdity,” Goose’s Rick Mitarotonda said in a statement. “It’s doing the electric slide down the grocery aisle between the Pop-Tarts and Frosted Flakes. Hyper-convenience, hyper-connected; lost in the digital sauce and feeling pretty good about it. All while we’re left with the nagging questions: how long can this feeling last? How long can all of it last?”
Their release statement goes on to explain, “BIG MODERN! sees Goose confronting the relentless stimuli and accelerated absurdity of our present-day culture by meeting it head-on with their own sprawling versatility and creative range. Built on the back of the band’s vaunted improvisational prowess, the album highlights their ongoing musical evolution through 15 future-facing tracks that weave effortlessly through heartland rock piano ballads, accented orchestral jazz interludes, and high-octane synth rock.”
BIG MODERN! will be also be pressed as a two-vinyl 180g yellow LP. That version will include a 12-page booklet, housed in a gatefold sleeve that’s foil-stamped and numbered out of 2000 units. Three of the record’s tracks have already been performed live: “Big Modern!” was debuted on September 1, 2024, “Salt” was introduced on April 7, 2024 and “Torero” was first performed on May 8, 2025.
Goose will kick off their spring tour in Asheville, NC on Friday, April 10.
