Gold-Bears, a twee punk band from Atlanta, Georgia, make joyful noise
influenced by love, jangly guitars, fuzz pedals, reverb, words,
spastic drumming, and friends. Jeremy Underwood, formerly of Plastic
Mastery (Magic Marker Records) and the French Horns (Clairecords),
formed Gold-Bears with Erich Leudtke, Dave Fortner, and Santiago
Archila in fall 2009 to record & perform the songs he’d stockpiled
during a 5 year sabbatical from music. The band’s taught, blistering
take on pop form has gained them comparisons to Boyracer, early My
Bloody Valentine, the Mountain Goats and the Wedding Present.
Gold-Bears’ debut 7” single is set for release in early 2010 via Magic
Marker Records, followed shortly thereafter by a 7” on Cloudberry
Records.
