No Age is more than a band to us,” he continues. “It is an umbrella.” And, under this umbrella, Dean and Randy have curated art shows, designed shirts, hats, bandanas, etc., made videos and ‘zines. No Age prefers to perform in unique venues: the LA River Basin, a public library, book stores, an Ethiopian restaurant, all to foster new ways to experience live music outside of traditional bar/club settings. www.myspace.com/nonoage About The Goat & The Occasional Others: The Goat & the Occasional Others is a Los Angeles-based garage band. Formed in 2007 by two skateboarders with too much time on their hands and too much creative energy to keep bottled up. Andrew Reynolds (guitar) and Shane Heyl (vox) were quickly joined by their good friends Kevin “Spanky” Long (guitar) and Beagle Oneism (drums) to create The Goat’s first record, a vinyl 10” self-titled EP released in 2008 as a promotional item in very limited quantities by Altamont Apparel Ltd., Reynolds’ Los Angeles-based skateboard clothing company featuring the band logo and cover artwork designed by the notorious graffiti writer NECKFACE. Soon after this first release, The Goat added the Atiba Jefferson on keyboards to complete the line-up. Through this much sought after release and some energetic and intense early live shows, The Goat quickly established a cult following amongst everyone from professional skateboarders like Eric Koston and Guy Mariano, to the porn actress Crystal Clear and the celebrated movie actor Ryan Gosling. Gosling, himself a musician in the band Dead Man’s Bones, introduced the band to the label Wolfheart Records in Los Angeles, for whom The Goat is currently recording their first full length entitled “The Goat Speaks” to be release in Spring 2009. As much fun as these guys have making and playing music, loyal skate fans need not worry, none of these guys have any plans for quitting their “day jobs” anytime soon! www.myspace.com/thegoattime About Altamont: Find a job you love and you'll never have to work a day in your life. Confucius said that a long time ago, and all of us here at Altamont live by that principle today. We love to design exceptional clothing. Each season, Altamont is honored to bring together a diverse group of creative outcasts — people who make their living by doing what they love most — be they skateboarders, musicians, artists or designers. These people are, like Altamont, cut from a different cloth, and we invite their direct contributions to our collection so their stories will inspire you to pursue whatever it is you love, and maybe even splash some paint yourself, slap metal to coping, start your own band, and make a contribution. We know that not everyone is going to like everything we do, and that's fine with us. Altamont isn't meant for everyone. In fact, we hope those people will consider this an invitation to get up and start their own clothing company! www.altamontapparel.com Press Inquires: Brian Jones Altamont Public Relations Brian.Jones@SoleTechnology.com
