Las Vegas headliner Matt Goss dropped by Fox & Friends to share “Strong” – a track from his new CD Life You Imagine.

Goss recently spoke to Advocate.com about the song:

“It’s interesting that the song has already been so many different things to different people,” Goss says of the tune.

“A friend of mine who was overweight and wanted to get fit told me she used it every day to encourage her when she exercised, and it was also just used on Good Morning America when they were covering the Boston Marathon.

“So for somebody who is coming out – which has many different levels to it and can obviously be a torment-filled moment – if that song can encourage people to be strong in that moment and have courage to believe in who they are, then I’m a lucky man.”

A strong LGBT ally, Goss isn’t shy about sharing his thoughts on opposition to marriage equality today:

“It’s absolutely wrong, and that’s why I support marriage equality,” says Goss.

“How can someone be a loving partner for 20 years and have no rights? Who decides that? There is no question that this is a human rights issue and all people deserve the right to be acknowledged.

“It always seems to come down to a bigger question of faith and religion for a lot of people, but that’s not the point. We don’t need to get into all of that. That’s something that is a personal matter. Because in regards to basic human rights, people should be given the same rights across the board – it’s not even a question. That’s just something that just has to be. “

Las Vegas headliner Matt Goss to have two music releases in 2014

Matt Goss became a household name internationally from his days in the smash pop band, Bros. For the last five years, he’s headlined his own Caesars Palace residency. Now, the Virgin Records artist is on the verge of making his name known stateside.

Las Vegas headliner Matt Goss is getting ready to serve up “modern/old school swing” with two upcoming releases.

February 11th will see the release of his EP featuring the romantic, “I Do.”

The song is described by Matt as the perfect proposal song that is as inclusive as it is romantic. Other tracks include “Mustang,” “Lovely Las Vegas,” and “There’s Nothing Like This,” all of which will appear on Goss’ full-length album, Life You Imagine in the spring of 2014.

As a mature, suave vocalist, Matt’s style and sound has ear-marked him as a modern throwback. In an old-school move, Matt and producer Ron Fair spent two years meticulously recording with a sixteen-piece brass section and thirty-two strings, prompting Billboard Magazine to applaud its “mix of big band swing and contemporary-sounding soul that pays respectful homage to the Rat Pack era.”

“I want my music to sound big. I’m inspired by Queen and Sinatra, Elvis and Bowie because there was never anything understated about their music,” says Matt. “I want to create as much energy, glamour, and drama as I can.”

His weekly Matt Goss Live at Caesars Palace  has been called the “hottest show in Vegas” by the Los Angeles Times and was recently extended through June 2014.  You can also see Goss in the new Vegas-themed Ciroc Vodka campaign with Sean “Diddy” Combs.
