Bio
GOSSIP has been a band for 10 years. We have just finished our fourth long player. We called it 'Music for Men'. Rick Rubin stroked his beard and smiled while we played drums. We were in Malibu for quite a while. We couldn't find any donuts there. We camped out in Bob Dylans old tour bus and wondered why we don't like Bob Dylan that much, actually. We grew down in Arkansas, now we live in Doom Town (a.k.a. Portland). It storms there sometimes and unlike Malibu it is a great town for donuts. Perfection is not real. That is all. "It is art that makes life, makes interest, makes importance... and I know of no substitute whatever for the force and beauty of its process." Henry James -
