Sir Ari Gold • Pledge His F**Kn Record

Sir Ari Gold is ready to take on his next project, and is asking if you would like to take this journey with him. He has a couple of things in mind, and one of those is a music video for his next single, "Play My F**Kn Record". Of course, Sir Ari is not one to play 'small', so he is looking to make a 3D video! He is also looking to produce a Remix album, with remixes from 'Between the Spirit & the Flesh' as well as some new tracks written by Ari and collaborator Brandon "Apollo" Pope. And that is not all! He is also working on a documentary, looking back on the first decade of his life as a gay superstar, allowing us all to see what went on both in front of and behind to scenes of Sir Ari's wild ride. When I think of Sir Ari's career, I remember the first time I heard/saw him, with the video for "Wave Of You", off his self-titled 2001 debut.

Yes, I saw that video, and have been a loyal fan since. Gold has continued to make music that has maintained my interest, as well as a bit of my lust. He has managed to combine a personal to his music with a raw energy that is so very sexy. That could truly be seen in the latest video, for the song "My Favorite Religion".

You see, those are just two of the many highlights of the last 10 years in the career of Sir Ari Gold, and I bet, like me, you are left wanting more. If that is the case, you can be a part of it all by joining in with his Indie-Go-Go project. Need a little more temptation? Check out the teaser to the project, with Sir Ari baring his all for you.

Happy Birthday, Sir Ari Gold!

Today is the birthday of the beautiful and talented Ari Gold. Ari was born on this day in the Bronx in 1977, and was discovered singing at his brother's Bar Mitzvah. Ari landed his first job as a professional singer/actor performing the lead role on the CBS Children's recording Pot Belly Bear: Song and Stories. He has sung countless jingles, including Jem & the Holograms and the Cabbage Patch Kids. He has been openly gay since he launched his solo career, being out and proud no matter what. He has a couple of solo albums, and has excelled with music videos. Each of his videos have made it on to the Logo charts, including the latest, Make My Body Rock.



Previously, he held the top spot on LOGO with I Can Forgive You, a gorgeous and soulful ballad with a gorgeous and lush video my Christopher Ciccone.



Wave of You was the first exposure I had of Ari, and I instantly fell in love. The song is great, and the video is fantastic as well. I saw the video, and needed to buy the music first chance, which I most certainly did.



So, Happy Birthday, Ari Gold, and thank you for being a hero, being an out and proud gay man, allowing your talent to shine for the world. To learn more about Ari, visit his official website here. When I first found him, I used to go to his website just to listen to the music, before I bought it for myself. I now own all his albums.

Ari Gold - Wave of You

I can remember the first time I saw an Ari Gold video, for it was quite the experience. I had read about an out and proud Jewish man who refused to compromise with his music or his life, so I went online to search out his videos. I found Wave of You, and was instantly entranced. The song itself would have been enough, but coupled with the images of gorgeous men and beautiful transsexuals, I knew I had to seek out more.



I did, and I loved what I saw. So I quickly added Ari's albums to my collection, and love to hear it when he plays on my iPod. His latest album, Transport Systems, is so strong, including the song I Can Forgive You. Here is the video, directed by Christopher Ciccone.

And this concludes my series of some of my favorite artists. That is 28 arts in the past 37 hours, all in a celebration of the support the readers of Soundtrack to my Day have given over the past year. Thanks, and you enjoyed it.

New Shows - Ari Gold Appears Off-Broadway

The gorgeous and multi-talented Ari Gold is appearing in an off-Broadway show in NYC called 'The Hole'. The musical was written by Joey Murray and Rob Baunmgartner, and is playing at the Theater at St Clements, 423 W 46th Street, thru this weekend. More about the show here.

For those of you not familiar with Ari, he is an out singer with amazing talent and beguiling looks. I own all his CDs, and can't wait for the next to come out. One of my favorite songs is Wave Of You, the video a breathtaking homage to photographer Herb Ritts.
