Hope For Agoldensummer is a family band, living and working in the fine town of Athens, GA. A junkyard-orchestra. An anarchist-soul-choir. For nearly a decade, this band has traveled the USA creating rusty, gutter angel melodies with a slide guitar, banjo, jangly percussion, glockenspiel, singing saw, piano and a few old coke bottles. The defining sound of the band lies in the frighteningly beautiful sibling harmonies of sisters, Claire and Page Campbell.

Many members came and went until the sisters teamed up with music producer / recording engineer and performer Suny Lyons (Electrophoria, pacificUV, Lovers, Tin Cup Prophette, Popheart Productions) in 2008. Hope For Agoldensummer‘s new album, Life Inside The Body, continues to deliver the Campbell sisters’ satisfyingly understated and hyper-aware form of soulful folk music while also reflecting the aesthetic effects of the band’s evolving line-up. We get a few cherished moments of their delicious acapella, silly songettes fit for a giggle, some lazy porch swing songs to sweat by, and even a single or two worth of the sisters’ catchiest songs to date.
