The band's newest release, Aerogramme, on Khosla and co.'s own Mt. Hoboken Records/Nice Music Group recounts the travels of Khosla's family from India to the US in the late 1970s. Lead single "The Border Line" received consistent airplay on US radio (including Sirius XM's "The Spectrum" and several other Triple A-format stations around the country). The album was released to very positive reviews, including the Los Angeles Times' pop music Editor naming it the #1 album of 2013. Aerogramme was released under Sony India for several South Asian countries.
The band was founded by singer/songwriter Siddhartha Khosla. From 2005 to 2007, the band lineup consisted of Ramy Antoun (drums), Sergio Andrade (bass), Seth McLain (guitars, keys and backing vocals) and Derek Horst (guitars and backing vocals). The band signed a record deal in 2005 with a start-up, independent label Union Records, with distribution through ADA. Thanks to KCRW's heavy airplay they were able to sell 10,000 copies of their debut Tally of the Yes Men. Tally was co-produced by Jeff Peters and Goldspot. Respected radio stations KEXP and WTMD, along with other indie radio stations across the country, began to play the record in constant rotation.
Goldspot also played the Glastonbury (headlined by The Arcade Fire and Björk), O2 Wireless, and V festivals throughout the summer of 2007. The band has opened for Travis, Death Cab for Cutie, Franz Ferdinand, and Bon Jovi.
Khosla co-wrote the track "Flirting" with Natalie Imbruglia which appeared on her 2009 album Come to Life.
Khosla is currently the Composer for NBC's This Is Us and Lionsgate/E!'s The Royals. His recent credits include FOX comedy Grandfathered and feature films Fat Camp and Liv. He composed original songs for the musical film Basmati Blues and ABC series The Neighbors. He also wrote original songs for the series, including a Bollywood musical episode that aired on March 17, 2014.
