Young Guv, aka songwriter Ben Cook, is gearing up for the release of his new double album, GUV III & IV, and the first installment, GUV III, is due out March 11th from Run For Cover Records (and Hand Drawn Dracula in Canada). Today he’s sharing the appropriately titled guitar-pop gem, “Good Time.”
From start to finish, GUV III is full of undeniable hooks and crunchy guitars, offering the perfect entry point for both new listeners and those already initiated into the wide world of Guv. As evidenced by “Good Time” and previous singles “Only Wanna See U Tonight,” “Lo Lo Lonely,” and “It’s Only Dancin'” (which have garnered attention from the likes of Stereogum, BrooklynVegan, Uproxx, Raven Sings The Blues, and more), Cook has a distinct ability to channel years of crate-digging into Young Guv’s songs, resulting in a record that brings a fresh perspective to timeless sounds.
