GOES THE DYNAMITE

Goes The Dynamite (stylized as GOES THE DYNAMITE) is a Cincinnati-based pop trio whose members include local indie music veterans Josh Purnell (guitar/vocals), Aaron Scott (bass/vocals), and Shawn Scott (lead vocals/guitar). Their music cleverly sprinkles modern pop sensibilities with 80s-inspired synth, dance, and R&B rhythms. Never taking themselves too seriously, the group injects sophisticated melodies with subtle humor, inviting an effortless good time for the listener.

Eschewing the traditional approach—write a few songs, book some gigs, start playing out—the group opted instead to focus solely on writing and recording their first album. Nearly four years later, that effort has culminated in their self-titled debut consisting of 10 imminently listenable, infectiously danceable tracks scheduled for release in 2025.
