Interview
with ClarkFork Journal:
"Whether or not David Boone enjoys obsessing about life’s difficulties,
the fact is that he does it a lot. It’s as if he would somehow go mad
if these conceptions, fears, and frets couldn’t be sprung from his mind.
Fortunately, for him – and for us – these active anxieties and

The State of The Union (individual) |

"David did it right,
and the result was a nearly sold-out concert that truly ranks as one of
the finest I've ever witnessed. Indeed, it was more than a concert; it
felt more like a community waking up to itself" -Joe Nickell of The Entertainer |
A Tale of Gold is available online at CD BABY.
Critics Review the new album:
"David Boone's new CD is pure gold"
It is a fantastic album stacked with immediately memorable hooks, creeper
songs that grow on you with every listen, soul-baring lyrics, and hardly a
moment of filler.

"Going Big"
A Tale of Gold is a marked departure from the stripped-down singer-songwriter
fare typical of Boone’s recent work. The focus here is just as much
on the production as the sentiment and lyrics, with every song seeming to
work toward a dramatic build accompanied by strings, organ, ambient noise,
or all of the above. It comes through best on the mounting sounds of “Above
the Rain” and “I Won’t Leave You Alone,” as well as
the Bruce Springsteen-type rocker “Pieces of Art.” Both conceptually
and musically, A Tale of Gold is carefully crafted; it sounds more aimed for
radio than a coffeehouse. It’s a change Boone embraces and a challenge
he tackled, as always, head on.
