Black Gold--Rush

Best known in some circles as the touring keyboardist for Panic(!) at the Disco, Eric Ronick is a skilled musician and vocalist in his own right. Along with Than Luu on percussion and guitars, Ronick fronts Black Gold, whose debut album, Rush, dropped back in February.

Rush offers music that's several steps above the overly polished, forgettable pop the studios insist on pushing down our throats these days. Sleek and melodic, with choruses that will get stuck in your head, Rush will find its way onto many of your most listened-to playlists. It's definitely worth far more than the $5 Amazon is charging right now for an mp3 download version, so head over and buy it at this better-than-great price. You won't be sorry.
