After two amazing albums on Atlantic Records, the Guf's decided to go their seperate ways.  For Goran, it wasn’t over. Songs kept breaking though and during his soul searching, he kept the sound of The Gufs alive. The intent was to make music together again, and when that didn’t develop, he decided to gather some new players and begin his solo career. It was a refreshing step back, a way to write without the pressure to become a rock star. There were no expectations, no demands for radio friendliness, and no requirements for hit songs. And so he wrote. And a year later, fans are receiving Goran as a solo artist with the same zealous enthusiasm as they had for The Gufs.

An artist strives to sum up a recording project with a name, but Any Day Now, is more than just a title for Goran’s debut solo release. The process of recording is time consuming, and it took over a year to put the pieces together. In the interim, Goran teased fans with a powerful single that hit the Midwest airwaves in the fall of 2001. A song about the emotions of loss, wondering and growth, “Where Are You Now?” was released after the September 11th terrorist attacks in New York City. Everyone has a way of dealing with tragedy, personal or otherwise, and Goran’s distinctive voice, lush piano and haunting cello provides the foundation for a song that asks what’s next after such a tragedy.

Any Day Now proclaims an independence from the band that gave Goran notoriety at the same time that it breathes familiarity. The punching pop hook of “Long way out” smoothly transitions to the mellow and uplifting, “Don’t (let the sun go down).” The album is complete with quiet moments and toe-tapping songs that will get you singing in your car, proving Goran’s talent for crafting catchy pop tunes that rock.
