Goldwater / Goldwater the Second / GOLDWATER THE THIRD

At the end of this century's first decade, when the productivity of the lasting Northampton band the Figments became threatened by the broad geography of these divided states, front man Thane Thomsen decided a new project was in order. Enter Goldwater.

And then, an album later, enter Goldwater the Second, a new configuration of the original.  After guitarist Matt Cullen moved to a distant land from the rest of the band, the outfit took on a new shape and sound enhanced by the singing and/or cello playing of Melissa Nelson. All of the original cast of Goldwater is involved to some extent (Scott Hall, Henning Ohlenbusch, Brian Marchese, Matt Cullen). In addition, Bruce Tull contributes pedal steel guitar on two tracks, and acoustic guitar and bass on another, while Mike Wyzik adds some glockenspiel and percussion.

And now what?! You guess it. It's Goldwater the Third! Why? Well, because Goldwater plus Goldwater The Second equals Goldwater The Third.

At the end of this century's first decade, when the productivity of the lasting Northampton band the Figments became threatened by the broad geography of these divided states, front man Thane Thomsen decided a new project was in order. Enter Goldwater. A list of some of the bands these guys have been in would include the Figments, Lo Fine, Ware River Club, Drunk Stuntmen, Sitting Next to Brian, School For The Dead, Rehab Massachusetts, the Fawns, Aloha Steamtrain, and Haunt.

In 2010 they recorded the 7 song EP I'm a pessimist because of intelligence, but an optimist because of will. It is a record of strong statements, evincing an original indie approach that incorporates elements drawn from all of rock's dark history. On this EP Goldwater covers more shadowy terrain than 7 songs would seem to allow.
