Award-Winning Independent Recording Artist Ari Gold, is turning the music scene on its head, rewriting the rules, and trailblazing a storm of political pop. With music that is as catchy as it is controversial, Ari Gold has not only been out from the beginning of his career, he has also never shied away from creating songs that come from his unique perspective as an openly gay man--something that is unprecedented in R&B/Pop music. Ari has been seen and heard on TV and Radio on VH-1, MTV Europe, Radio 1, IFC, HBO Zone, Here!TV, BBC, FOX News, WOR, Sirius, XM, NPR and was the first independent artist to debut at #1 on MTV Network's LOGO. He is the Grand Prize Winner (and 1st place in the Pop Category) of the 12th Annual USA Songwriting Competition, an Independent Music Award Winner and 2x Outmusic Award Winner. Having graced the covers of countless magazines around the world, Ari has also been honored as one of Metro Source's "25 People That Make Us Proud," one of Genre's "Men We Love" and OUT Magazine's OUT100 honoree of the 100 People That Influence Gay Culture. With 3 critically acclaimed studio albums and a coffee table book and remix CD released in over 25 countries under his gold belt, the press has already coined Ari an international sex symbol and gay icon.
