    Help Goathead Record Collective achieve our dream so we can help others achieve theirs by donating to our Indiegogo!

    Goathead Record Collective’s Mission 

    We are an associaion of free thinkers and artists who want to build an infrastructure for DIY recording and low-cost music distribution in the Southwest.  

    Our Mission is: 

    • to make available the resources to self-produce records
    • to educate interested members of the community in sound engineering
    • to record and preserve the distinct folk and punk culture which has arisen in the southwestern United States
    • to actively promote creative and unique folk and punk bands from all over the Southwest.
    Not Your Average Record Label

    Unlike typical record labels which privilege a select few with a massive amount of resources, we plan to take a very small amount of resources and share those resources with the community. Even if you aren’t “on” our label, we would love to help you produce your own album, teach you how to book tours, teach you how to distribute your music independently, and have tons of fun while enabling others to do the same! 

    Building a Community Recording Studio 

    In order to make all this happen, we need to invest in some equipment.  That’s where you come in! We are asking the community to make contributions so we can purchase all the equipment necessary for a mobile recording studio.  This equipment won’t belong to any individual, but will be the property of the collective and all who need its services. Anyone is welcome to join the collective and record with this equipment, even if they’re are not a band on the label.  Anyone interested in learning sound engineering can learn on this equipment.  

    Specifically, we need:

    • a reliable laptop 
    • sound mixing software
    • a mixing board
    • vocal mics and instrument mics
    • mic cables
    • studio headphones
    • monitors
    • an external harddrive

    The cost of these items will total to roughly $4000.  That’s a lot of clams. Could you give us some of your clams? 

    Once this initial fundraising is completed, the record collective plans to be sustainable through volunteer work and modest merch sales.

    We have great faith in our fellow musicians and DIYers, locally and around the world. With your help, we can probably pull this off.

    Let’s do the most with the least.  Let’s do it together.

  4. beth--rest asked: Hey guys, it was awesome seeing and meeting you guys this last Saturday, is it possible you guys could send a Teeshirt and patches my way when you get some in??

    If you go to daysndaze.bigcartel.com you can see all of our shirt designs and patches :D

     


  5. fordprefect7-42-7 asked: You guys fucking NEED to come to the Medford/Grants Pass area of Southern Oregon. No good bands ever come here, and I would love it if you guys would change that. There's Musichead and Johnny B's in Medford, and Musichead is all ages. Pretty please?

    We are planning on doing an entire US DIY all ages tour next year :D And I really love Southern Oregon so that is on our list of places to play for sure!

     


  6. minou-souris asked: You guys are probably the funnest band I have heard in a long time, I'm so glad you got to stop by Fort Collins and play!!! Super bummed I didn't see you at the mouth house thoughh

    Fort Collins was super fun! Thanks for listening and coming out to the show!

     


  7. freecoffeeforlife asked: You guys ruled in Denver, it was nice meeting some of you guys too!

    Hell yeah Denver was awesome!!! Thanks for coming out :)

     


  8. Anonymous asked: How often do you guys tour? and do you guys have jobs to pay for gas or anything? or do you just hitch rides or train hop?

    We try and tour as much as we can so typically 2 to 3 times a year. When we are at home we take up odd jobs to maintain bills and also busk. For gas money we rely on money from the shows and we also busk along the way. We basically leave with no money and hope that people are kind enough to help us along our way, which has been working so far :)
