Goodbye Champion is the five-piece incarnation of a collaborative recording effort between Aaron Snyder and Steven Vidaic (Citizen Cope). They began earnestly writing and recording together in late 2003 focusing their efforts on the cohesive marriage of words and music. Sometimes anthemic, other times whimsical, their songs are a mixture of social commentary and personal experience with observational and philosophical leanings.
Completing the band is Ryan Jalbert(Brett Dennen), Garrett Sayers(Dwele), and Rory O'Connor(Gigantic Hand). Following their 2006 EP, Paper Boat, Goodbye Champion released their debut full length album, 'din', in December of 2008. 'din' is an emotionally charged, far-reaching yet intelligible guitar rock record with classic and modern appeal.
"This album is in constant rotation for me – great songwriting, lyrics and productions make it a stand out. (My favorite bit: The out-of-nowhere swell of drama and emotion in the middle of “Bury Your Dead”) And the level of musicianship is excellent; its clear that, while these guys fall into the “indie rock” sound generally, they’re skilled musicians generally and bring a variety of influences to the table. If you’re into intelligent yet visceral rock, you’ll like this."
-Monopod, Online reviewer
"The Paper Boat EP is an impressive body of work. Much like Broken Social Scene and recent Notwist albums, the promising debut's strength lies in its subtlety and diversity. I wake up to this EP all the time."
--Justin Eshak, A&R, Universal Republic Records
"We all love to discover new music that ignites our passion, where we feel that rush of “OMG! Who is this? I want more!” moments. Many of us live for those moments, and mine came about after hearing “Outside, Looking In” from Goodbye Champion, which sunk into the cellular level of my being. The guitar lines, hook driven melody and subdued vocals drove me to their MySpace to check out other tracks from their 2006 E.P., Paper Boat. Lovely."

Hey there, Here's one from left field... Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat? A while back I came across some very disturbing information, which inspired me to make this video: Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4 Both artistic (ensure you've good enough sound to enjoy the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice. Though the source materials are somewhat aged, the fundamentals remain relevant today. I encourage all to visit the YouTube web page above to learn more (Show your support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly re-post and circulate as widely as possible. Help to raise awareness. Say have you checked out my web site (http://www.faberoptime.com) recently? Take care and keep in touch. Best, Faber. "Just a guy trying to make the world a better place."
