The eclectic collaboration between Jon Elliott of The Floorwalkers and Nick D’Andrea of Nick D’ and The Believers has turned into the indie pop Doc Robinson. The duo have released the single off their upcoming EP Golden Daze. Produced by Mike Landolt (OAR, Maroon 5, Spin Doctors), the indie pop “Golden Daze” is filled with old school swagger that splashes in funk and soul.

D’Andrea on song’s creation: “We wrote ‘Golden Daze’ in homage to the golden moments of our youth; chopping it up, getting into trouble, smoking weed out of apple cores, playing with fireworks, listening to bone thugs in the suburbs, hanging out with the ‘bad kids.’ The song is like driving away from childhood, looking in the rear-view mirror with a smirk on your face and a tear in your eye. It’s very much a tribute to dear ones who we’ve lost along the way, and to the feeling that life can never be so simple and fun again.”
Elliott added: “In life, we often try to hold onto our dearest memories, telling and retelling stories and clinging to images of time spent. We take photos and make home videos so that we can re-visit the past and relive the moments we hold near and dear. The song honors the stories from our youth that we can never re-live, and to the people and places that made these golden moments so unforgettable.”
Doc Robinson will return to the recording studio later this month, in preparation of a sophomore release slated for release in 2017.
The EP release show will be held at Brothers Drake in Columbus, Ohio on November 19.
