Gozellta Vol. I & II is a deep-cut Burlington, Vermont scene document capturing a wide cross-section of early-2000s indie, alternative, and experimental artists tied to the Queen City’s underground music ecosystem, many of whom circulated through venues, labels, and community platforms later chronicled by Vermont music archives and regional documentation efforts like Big Heavy World. Released on Red Bean Records, this double compilation functions as a time capsule of Burlington’s DIY era—pairing raw rock energy, folk-adjacent experimentation, and genre-blurring songwriting into a cohesive local snapshot that was never mass-distributed. Copies surface infrequently, and for collectors of Vermont music history, regional compilations, and archival scene samplers, Gozellta stands as a meaningful and increasingly hard-to-find artifact.
