Cal Gold is an independent songwriter, guitarist, and vocalist. His multigenre debut album "MIXED MESSAGES" released in 2019 by CEEGEE Music is a showcase for both his songwriting and musical talent.This album was recorded in a multitrack home digital studio wherein the vocals and instruments ,with the exception of some basic programmed rhythm tracks, were live played solo instrument overdubs by the artist. His song lyrics are novel and compelling, and his music exhibits a noticeable jazz influence in its harmonic composition. Much of his guitar work is fingerstyle reminiscent of brazilian jazz technique with a running bass line, and rhythmic chord voicing.  He is equally at home on electric, steel string acoustic, and classical nylon string guitars in addition to some keyboard synthesizers. He  is currently working on a second album of originals intended to be independently released in 2020.
