I recorded a noisy cover of 6am Morningside, one of my favorite songs by The Clientele.

Let’s use this website

Hiya!

I (Jeremy) have decided to actually start using the Gold-Bears website. I’m going to sporadically post demos, whatevers, and mixes of songs I like. Sound cool? Didn’t think so.

Check back often.

Yrs,
Jeremy

Entire Newtown Radio Gold-Bears Session – have a listen

On May 17th, 2011 we stopped by the Swan 7 recording studio in Brooklyn, NY to record a few songs for a radio broadcast. We have never recorded a live sesh before so it was challenging/scary/fun. The radio producer asked how it was different than a live show. We said “It’s 3pm. We haven’t had a beer yet. There’s only one take to get it right and unlike a show, the recording will last forever“. Have a listen & Enjoy!

Gold-Bears Are You Falling In Love? PhotoBooth Pictures

Conversation two days before our record release tour:

E: “What if we took the photobooth? It would be soo much fun/pain in the butt!”
J: “I’m down.”
S: “The more I think about it… it’s gonna be too much trouble”
J: “yeah right!”
E: “let’s do it!”

…and that’s how we decided to take our DIY photobooth on tour. Totally worth the trouble. All by itself, the booth snapped pictures of old friends, new friends & some of our music idols. Yeah. Right!

» See All the Photo Booth Pictures «

* There are lots of pictures of us Gold-Bears because we were testing to make sure the booth was still working (It had a gnarly bug for the first 3 cities).
