The Goose Creek Symphony is an American rock band with roots in Arizona and Kentucky. They were formed in 1968 in Phoenix, Arizona as an outlet for the songs of Charlie Gearheart, aka Ritchie Hart, and were best known for their 1972 cover of Janis Joplin's song, "Mercedes Benz". They continued recording until 1976, then reformed in 1990.

Goose Creek Symphony's "Words Of Ernest" is a must-have for fans of country-rock. They sound nothing like The Eagles or The Flying Burrito Brothers or West or even The Byrds. When approaching Goose Creek you have think more in terms of the Americana sound of The Band but with a much more communal hippie vibe.

Goose Creek Symphony's’s unique country rock hybrid had an earthier, more organic sound than just about anything out of Nashville from 1971 to even no. Goose Creek Symphony was one of the original bands that were part of this mix. Their music combined a rural sensibility with rocking rhythms that tended to meander like a babbling brook flowing through shady woods. We call this jam band music today, but back then it was just getting your groove on.
