Showtime Goma: Dream-Pop by Jen Goma of A Sunny Day in Glasgow

Soundcheck | Jul 6, 2017

Jen Goma, of A Sunny Day In Glasgow unleashes hopeful exuberance in her solo project, Showtime Goma, on a record of alternately dancey & dreamy sugar boosts. Jen’s singular inspiring voice lifts and envelops a listener on her debut album Smiley Face. With collaborators like Deerhoof drummer/composer Greg Saunier, plus appearances by composer Shahzad Ismaily, along with personnel from ASDiG, the music is clearly carefully crafted with love and an irreverent sense of humor. Jen Goma and her conspirators in Showtime Goma join us in the studio to play some of these tunes live.
