Description:
Thadeus Gonzalez is a singer, songwriter, and musician from Oakland California. While fronting a local rock band Electric Sister nearly ten years ago, Thadeus caught international critical attention and was called "a front man to watch" with "an arena looking and sounding attitude." After launching a solo career in 2014, his reputation for genre blending was solidified. His independently-released debut record, Utopian Society, earned reviews like “...this musician can play and sing with the best of them recording today.” Silver Inside was released via Spectra Music in 2018, and kicked off nearly two years of coast-to-coast and international touring. Thadeus has opened for KISS, Motley Crue, Slash, and Bon Jovi. His third record, Opposite Faces, will be released via Rebel Waves Records in July, 2021.

This song is more about selling fake gold watches in Times Square. ‘The Death Of A Good Hustle’ is about the end of behaviors that were causing way more pain to other people than the pleasure I gained, similar to pulling one over on someone. “The Death Of A Good Hustle” is getting rid of the old ideas and thoughts that used to seem so natural. It's also about what can be after all those habits are put to an end, how you don't know what is on the other side. I needed to write this song to clear up things in my life that were not getting me anywhere." _______________________________________________________________________ Lyrics: Tear your old self down tell your demons now gonna tear your old self down and start anew Forget your old mistakes forget the tricks you played hustle to the grave and start anew Start a vow right now see how things turn out bury your demons down start anew The death The death of a good hustle Breath in the new air breath in the new hew hew Tear your old self start a vow right now to bury your demons down along with you _______________________________________________________________________ Credits: Written by: Thadeus Gonzalez Produced by: Tim Narducci Recorded at: Sonic Rooms Studios, Livermore, California Vocals: Thadeus Gonzalez, Erin Douglass Guitars: Thadeus Gonzalez, Tim Narducci Keyboards: Brad Barth Bass: Tim Narducci Drums: David Cubine Video: Mike Sloat – mikesloat.com Song Art: Jake Watling – jakewatling.com _______________________________________________________________________
