BIO: Since the conception of the BGC, a lot of things have changed for the band. They switched drummers, added a guitar player, and were rendered almost nonexistent after singer/guitarist Caldwell Dunlap suffered serious injuries in a Spinal Tap-like accident this past summer. Through all of this, they found time to go into the studio and record a five song EP, "Wonderkids", and a new untitled full-length. The bubblegum complex was best described as a Bi-polar band by local media. In the space of five minutes, quiet and pretty generally transform into noisy and loud, and the songs usually end up with Dunlap and guitarist Dave Dawson cockfighting in a melee of overloaded guitar distortion. Dawson's odd style adds a fun sense of weirdness to the pop aspects of the BGC's off-kilter arrangements. Drummer Andy Snyder and Erin Mobley on bass guitar lay down the law, and their consistency gives both guitar players the freedom to get as freaky as they wanna be. This is a band that enjoys not practicing until they have too and wind up being tighter than bands that practice for months. Be on the look out for their new release.
