Dauson City Gold Rush feels like the turning of a page—an album about moving forward without abandoning the past. Katie Dauson takes folk-rock storytelling and blends it with blues textures and an ’80s glow, creating a body of work that is confident without losing its sense of wonder. It’s the sound of an artist who has taken measure of her voice and is now writing without hesitation.
Tracks like “Scene Stealing Casanova” and “Just Another Love Song” showcase her melodic instincts and the charm of her observational songwriting. The hooks land with gentle force, and the emotions feel human, unforced, and quietly resonant. Everything about these songs suggests maturity without cynicism.
Even the instrumental title track, “Gold Rush,” feels purposeful—proof that Dauson understands how pacing, space, and atmosphere can deepen the listening experience. Closing with “Sing a Song,” she offers soft optimism rather than grand declarations. The album feels lived-in, compassionate, and richly rewarding.
