Canadian actor Ryan Gosling's band, Dead Man's Bones, to release debut album
By THE CANADIAN PRESS – 12 minutes ago
TORONTO — Canadian actor Ryan Gosling's goth-folk outfit, Dead Man's Bones, has signed a deal to release its debut album later this year.
Gosling started the two-man band with friend Zach Shields and wrote music for a "monster-ghost love story," which was originally destined for a
theatrical production.
But the band ended up recording its songs about werewolves and broken-hearted zombies for an album, with producer Tim Anderson of L.A. indie
rock group Ima Robot.
The Oscar-nominated 28-year-old Gosling, a native of London, Ont., is best known for starring in films including "Half Nelson," "The Notebook" and
"Lars and the Real Girl," but this will be his first album.
The two-piece has already released self-produced videos for "Name in Stone" and "In the Room Where You Sleep" online.
The self-titled album is set for release on Oct. 6 through Anti-Records.
