Bombs and Beating Hearts SLC
GO TO !
Bombs and Beating Hearts is an acoustic guerrilla folk punk band from SLC that was started sometime in the fall of 2004. We play acoustic because it costs less, we can set up anywhere, it's less to worry about, it sounds awesome, and it's very important to us for people to be able to understand our lyrics. We are striving to help make punk a fucking threat by provoking thought, tearing down walls, and pushing the fun and inspiration that music can bring into unexpected places.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
started in fall '04. will end when we achieve total freedom or find a better way to spread it.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
we have played shows in a laundromat, street corner, anarchist collective, in and in front of Sugar House Coffee (ended in a street fight with a biker and 4 employees. don't support them.) and even on TRAX. we love doing guerrilla shows the best and are always looking for new places to do them.
