Chris Gostling Plays the Speakeasy

Let's get through February with a cozy Saturday night at Karlo Estates, in their legendary Speakeasy.

On Feb 8th, Chris Gostling will be performing originals from his new album "Forest City Town County" as well as other songs from his catalogue.

Chris Gostling has been storytelling through songs for nearly 30 years. A multi-instrumentalist based in Eastern Ontario, his singer / songwriter’s style pays homage to folk, roots-rock and Americana veins while remaining a unique sonic offering.

On October 4th, Gostling released his sophomore full length album, "Forest City Town Country”. Recorded on Wolfe Island in Kingston, with the musical support of Hugh Christopher Brown, Jason Mercer, Liam Cole and Craig “Rocky” Roberts, the album sonically crosses genres from indie-folk through alt-country soulfulness and beyond.

"Forest City Town Country" is an evolution of Chris’ songwriting, and storytelling. He writes about experience, either personal or from witnessing other people's lives. From overheard tales through the thin walls in apartment building, to a reflection on a last family vacation as a kid, to the concept of enduring grief and the seasons that we seem to feel it the most, these songs start as catharsis and become a shared experience when played for others.
