Volunteers

Rock music with a bit of a roll.. yes, The Volunteers are served straight up in the single malt blend that is New York City. A quartet band led by songwriter Dan Goddard, The Volunteers have toured North America, while gaining homegrown critical acclaim (The Onion, The Deli, New York Waste, Jersey Beat) along with a burgeoning fan base.  The Volunteers "add some poignant lyrics and social commentary laced with humor. They make an old story fresh again, all the while rockin' out. These guys dish out pure animal joy and atomic rage for the masses.. with an unforgettable live performance." Their recent album "Spectrophilia", released September of 2008, was recorded with Producer Paul Mahajan (Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs, TV on the Radio, The National) and featuring contributions from Stuart Bogie (Antibalas) and Clint Steele (The Swans). The Volunteers live show is one of the best you'll find for an unsigned band in NYC.  Blending articulate musicianship with wild energy, great songs and powerful delivery, fans who come to their shows always have a blast.

 

The Volunteers have recently been taken on by a publicist, The Musebox (www.themusebox.net) who will be actively promoting all upcoming shows and events.
