Artist description
GUFF's brand of punk rock is a fast as fuck blend of melody and speed with no tricks or gimmicks to speak of. Based in their hometown of Athens, GA since 1999, they have played over 500 shows across the U.S. and Canada. This rigorous touring schedule has earned the band tons of great friends who they've shared stages with, like the Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Bigwig, Sum 41, Flogging Molly, Dynamite Boy, and
Citizen Fish to name just a few.
Of course, they have no plans to slow down anytime soon; GUFF has at least 6 months of touring slatedfor 2003. The more time that passes, the harder they work and the
faster they rock!
Since most of their tours thus far have been totally DIY, GUFF has had more than their share of on-the-road adventure. They've been
pulled over with drugs, crashed a dozen cars, and watched two of their vans self-destruct. After one such vehicular suicide left them stranded in Texas, they volunteered for a medical research program that would generate enough money to buy a new van and continue the tour. They were compelled to become punk rock lab rats! Who knows what will happen next!
GUFF's first album on Community Projects Records came out in the spring of 2000 to positive reviews across the board. They've also
appeared on a slew of compilations from record labels all over the country. "The Guff is a Disaster" EP is their Go-Kart Records debut
in addition to their tracks on the new Go-Kart vs. the Corporate Giant Vol. 3 compilation. A brand-new full-length is planned for this spring.
With a work ethic like theirs, there will be no stopping GUFF in 2003 and beyond. So don't forget to check them out soon in a town near you!
