The Goat Family began life as jug band root music stompathon and our influences range from Leadbelly to Led Zeppelin, from Son House to Cher. All the band members are writing songs and our live shows feature original tunes guaranteed to get your pulse rate up. Dancing and laughing is encouraged. We're also known to peel off a film now and then and sometimes they show up in the live show.
Liz Keim, Cinema Art Program Director at the Exploratoirum says:
"The Goat Family packed the Exploratorium's theater the first time they played live accompaniment to experimental films generating a charged resonance between both the music and films they created. One member in the audience proclaimed it the best live music/film program she had seen to date.
The band brings all out energy to their shows whether in the confines of a theater or out in a public park. Captured by the originality of their lyrics and an impressive array of instruments, The Goat Family's music calls for me to jump out of my chair and dance."
Unstopperable is our first cd and our second All We Need is now available on cd at The Goat Family website or on-line at Itunes. Also check out the coolest of t-shirts on our site.
