"Fans of the Future" is the result of the collaboration between Michael Goodenow and Carl Bishop. They have been writing and playing music together for over 10 years in various forms and "Fans of the Future" is their latest creative work. The music features lush, broad soundscapes that draw you in to the tight and focused guitar driven arrangements. The lyrics are both playful and dark, optimistic and heartbreaking, inciting you to give in to your inner urges along with presenting hopeless romantic ideals of love. Produced by Matt Pendergast, "Fans of the Future" will challenge you along with offering moments of shear joy and exuberance. "Fans of the Future" are just that, fearless crusaders into the next. Not afraid of what lies beyond but in fact, fans of the future!
