Since forming in early 2013 Doe have built a UK following with their unique brand of 'wonky alt-pop' (Clash Magazine). The band's influences are rooted in 90s indie-rock, but their songwriting style and lyrical content place them very much in the present. Off-kilter time signatures, intertwining guitars and the vocal-interplay between guitarist Nicola Leel and drummer Jake Popyura stand as clear markers of a band who have honed their craft. Following the success of their 2016 debut album Some Things Last Longer Than You, the band released the follow up, Grow into It, in September 2018 via Big Scary Monsters (UK) and Topshelf Records (US). The album drew critical acclaim from the likes of NPR, Stereogum, DIY Magazine, NARC, and landed at #11 on ABC News’ 50 Best Albums of 2018. They’ve since taken their new material on the road across the UK, Europe and the U.S in the form of their unstoppable live act with 2019 stops confirmed to include Washed Out Festival and Handmade Festival in the UK, along with SXSW and Treefort Music Fest in the US.

Eureka California began as Jake Ward's bedroom project in Raleigh, NC, in 2007. On a whim he moved to Athens, GA, soon after that and the band expanded to a five-piece. The lineup changed over the years as Ward's songwriting began to find its footing -- graduating college during an economic recession, the anxiety of time passing without realizing you've made any progress, on to sobriety in a drinking town and its accompanying isolation, and maybe that's not the only reason you feel isolated, and now on to frustration at the music industry and looming threats of nuclear war. The band slimmed down to a two-piece with drummer Marie A. Uhler in 2012. Over a decade in and four LPs, a lost CD, and several 7"s and cassettes later, anxieties over the years flying by while workdays last forever are still at the forefront of the mind of Eureka California -- wanting to make moves but being too broke to go anywhere, the low-wage jobs that take up all your time and keep you too exhausted to enjoy your days off, those people that waste the time you do have, or is it your fault for procrastinating? Maybe that's why their songs are so short; most hover around the two-minute mark, and everything live is played almost twice as fast.
