Golden State

Since the “Castle” first aired in March 2009 with the pilot episode “Flowers For Your Grave”  viewers have made a lot of noise about the music used throughout the series.   “Castle” received an Emmy nomination for “Outstanding Music Composition For A Series” in 2009 and is expected to be nominated again in 2010.  Each week following a new episode fans can be see scouring the internet for details about songs used in the series.

This week, following the airing of “A Rose for Everafter” the internet exploded with viewers eager to find details about the song used in the final wedding scene.  CastleTV.net credited the song as “Love Song” by Golden State as did the ABC in their Castle Music Lounge however confused fans suggested that the information must have been incorrect, particularly considering lead vocalist in the song is female and Golden State is a male band.

James Grundler, composer of “Love Song” and primary songwriter for Golden State has responded exclusively to CastleTV.net to provide a little background on the song.

This is James from Golden State and yes, you guessed it, that’s not me singing Love Song. I had this song idea and it just didn’t feel right with my voice so we decided to experiment with a female voice – her name is Holly Conlan. It finally feels ‘right’ and I am really glad you like it – it fit so well in the wedding scene.

You can stream the track on the Golden State website.  The song will be available for purchase soon, to be notified when it becomes available join Golden State’s Facebook page.
