about
Rooted in virtuosic guitar riffs, vibrant drum patterns and powerful bass lines, the nu-metal band Silly Goose of Atlanta, Georgia creates a dynamic sound built for a crowd of head-banging music lovers who love a good kick of intensity. Silly Goose began in 2017 under the name “Student Driver,” but since then changed the name of the band and the lineup of members affiliated. The oldest members include lead singer Jackson Foster, bassist Stephen Pasell and drummer Alan Benikhis. Guitarist and vocalist Alex Goeke joined after meeting Foster and Silly Goose at a house show, and guitarist Santi Cabeza joined the band through a similar scenario. “We have been playing together with this lineup for about nine months, but Silly Goose has been a thing for four years,” Foster said in 2021. “When I first met Alan, our drummer, he was 13 at the time, and I thought his dad was the drummer. Stephen joined because he thought one of our mutual friends was going to be in the band.” As for Silly Goose’s sound, Foster described his taste in music as incredibly broad, yet fixated on the individuality of the genre of music described as “nu-metal.” This sound has influences of alternative metal, hip-hop and grunge that blend to create a balanced bomb of music.
