A soft rock tribute to the truest kind of love.
Released August 1st, 2023, Golden ChildĀ by Park City-based Gary Dranow & The Manic Emotions is a sincere, full-band album centred around one of lifeās purest bonds: the relationship between a dog and its owner. Tying its launch to Universal Shelter Dog Birthday, this project is as emotionally resonant as it is musically richādrawing inspiration from the likes of Bryan Adams, Train, Oasis, and Counting Crows.
āUnconditional love can conquer all.ā
Thatās the mantra behind Golden Child. While many albums wax poetic about romance and rebellion, Gary Dranow opts for something quieterāand, arguably, more radical: a celebration of loyalty, empathy, and emotional healing. Whether it's a gentle acoustic ballad or a guitar-driven soft rock anthem, the albumās heart never wavers.
