Rap rock wunderkinds Silly Goose will drop their new Bad Behavior EP via Blue Grape Music on September 13. Pre-order it here.
"We have been working on the songs for Bad Behavior for about a year now and it's so awesome that they are finally going to be released," says singer Jackson Foster. "We feel like they are a big step up for us and we hope you all like them as much as we do!"
The Atlanta band, which caught a buzz by crashing parking lots at Danny Wimmer festivals and which was recently announced a "Band You Need to Know About" by Revolver, will also drop a limited edition, translucent light blue 7" featuring "Bad Behavior" as the A side and previously released single "Tsunami" as the B side. It will be available on the road and here.
Silly Goose also recently invited their fans in the ATL to be a part of the "Bad Behavior" video shoot.

*Festival
Silly Goose is the audacious brainchild of Jackson Foster and Alan Benikhis, musicians who eat, sleep, and breathe the raw power of late '90s rap rock and nu metal. Growing up, the two marinated in the vibes of Limp Bizkit, Rage Against the Machine, Gojira, and an eclectic mix of genres, all coming together to forge the unmistakable sound of Silly Goose.
Silly Goose's first EP, The Goose Is Out Of The Bag, was put together while the boys were still in high school and laid the groundwork for their ambitious style, while simultaneously showcasing one of the attributes that their fans most appreciate – a commitment to delivering hard-hitting music without taking themselves too seriously. At the end of the day, Silly Goose are all about providing an outlet for all kinds of feelings, from frustration to rage, resentment and revenge to reveling in the joy of occasionally wanting to just be silly and mosh for the sheer exhilaration of it.
The new single "Tsunami" pushes boundaries in the spirit of the previously released tracks "King Of The Hill" and "Live It Up," marking a massive milestone as their first release since signing with Blue Grape Music.
What truly sets Silly Goose apart is their fusion of high-energy performances with a genuine, down-to-earth vibe. They never take themselves too seriously. Their simple mission is to make good music, have fun and make the people happy; a purpose that endears them to fans who appreciate the authenticity of their vibe. Silly Goose isn't just a band; they're a brotherhood of rockers who live to shred and put on unforgettable live shows.
The current lineup of Silly Goose features Foster on lead vocals, Benikhis on drums, Ian Binion on lead guitar and backup vocals, and Yalli Alvarez on bass guitar and backup vocals. Together, they create a sound that's both explosive and deeply engaging, powered by Jackson's dynamic vocal delivery and the band's relentless instrumentation.
ABOUT BLUE GRAPE MUSIC:
In 2022, industry veterans David Rath and Cees Wessels formed Blue Grape Music. The name will be familiar to rock music fans, as it was the merchandise company also launched by Wessels, who founded the venerable and esteemed record label Roadrunner Records in the ‘80s. Roadrunner earned a reputation as an iconic label that turned hard rock and metal acts into household names for several decades under Wessels' tutelage. Rath spent 21 years in the A&R department at Roadrunner, working on albums by a variety of RIAA-certified and culturally important acts, including but not limited to Slipknot, Korn, Turnstile, Gojira, Coheed and Cambria, White Reaper, Slash, Trivium, Dream Theater, and more. When the label changed management and ownership, Rath guided the company and oversaw the signings of bands like Young the Giant and Vance Joy. Ultimately, the Blue Grape executive team is powered by experience and a roll-up-your-sleeves-and-get-your-hands-dirty, by-any-means-necessary work ethic. Blue Grape's inaugural signing was the two-time Grammy nominee Code Orange and since then, the label has gone on to sign San Francisco punks Spiritual Cramp, hardcore heavyweights GEL, and Baltimore sludge slingers GASKET, with several new signing announcements expected to be announced this year. Blue Grape is distributed globally by The Orchard.
