Music like Solid Gold

Solid Gold is a Minneapolis-based indie rock band with an electronic and R&B sound. It consists of Zach Coulter, Adam Hurlburt and Matthew Locher. Solid Gold was voted "Best Rock Band of 2011" by the City Pages Readers' Poll.

In 2002, Solid Gold released their first EP, Solid Gold, followed by a second EP, Out of Your Mind, in 2004. In 2005, the band moved from Madison, Wisconsin to Minneapolis, Minnesota.

In 2008, the group released their first studio album, Bodies of Water. The MTV review of Bodies of Water stated: "[the album] drew comparisons to everything from new wave bands like New Order to ’80s Manchester bands like Happy Mondays and Stone Roses. The lyrics are deliciously obtuse, puzzle pieces of expression that could be fit into multiple meanings, rewarding multiple listens.” NME said of the LP: "This totally, totally addictive piece of laid-back, twinkling Minneapolis funkiness, has us mercilessly hooked."
