A Tale of Gold is available now, 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.
