Earlier this year, we gave you a sampling off the mojo that Sydney, Australia's Bearhug has working. Their album Bill, Dance, Shiner was released recently in Australia, and "Over The Hill" is a wonderfully melodic, guitar-driven rocker that's got plenty of heart. It's simple, straightforward, genuine indie rock, and I dig it for that. The [...]

Sydney's Bearhug are set to release their debut album "Bill, Dance, Shiner" on March 23 on Spunk Records . Recorded and co-produced by Tim Whitten (and the band), it follows the release of the EP 's "To Anything" and "Cartoon Islands". After a good year or so of touring, including supporting Built to Spill and Broken Social Scene, it's exciting times for this promising 5 piece. There will be tour dates announced soon to support the album. http://www.youtube.com/embed/r k9WOTwtUO8</a>" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen>

The 2 Bears are made up of one half Joe Goddard (Hot Chip) and one half Raf Rundell (Greco-Roman Soundsystem) and combined they make Indie-Electro House. We first came across them with their debut EP 'Follow the Bears' in 2010 and have since been hooked into their playful melodies and stomping beats. Earlier this year their ' Bear Hug ' track exploded into the public consciousness and with the latest single ' Work ' having a similar affect we decided to pop down to their neck of the woods and ask a few questions about them [...]

The 2 Bears debut LP 'Be Strong' is due to drop Jan 30th on Southern Fried Records in the UK and DFA in the States.

Their sound has been gathering fans from home and abroad, making this LP one of the first highly anticipated electronic albums of 2012. In the build up to its release the Bears have just recorded the much coveted Essential Mix (see below) and have also [...]
Straight out of Sydney, Australia, Bearhug have something special brewing, and "Angeline" is proof of their impressive potential. It's sort of like a less fuzzy Yuck, or a tad less reverby than The Drums, but that's not to say Bearhug don't have an appeal all their own. This song is one of those that feels [...]
I've said it before on maamf, and no doubt i'll say it a gazillion more times. I love good guitar driven local indie pop. There's a beauty in the simplicity of it all, and in the familiarity of it all. Sydney gents Bearhug do this very well. So much so that this isn't the first [...]

The 2 Bears, aka Joe Goddard (Hot Chip) & Raf Rundell, will release their third EP "Bear Hug" on May 30th on Southern Fried Records. The EP contains four new tracks and sounds...

The 2 Bears , Raf Rundell of Greco-Roman Soundsystem and Joe Goddard of Hot Chip crossed paths in various DJ booths at shared gigs over the years. One thing lead to another and they ended up hanging out and making house music together for the fun of it. The result is the 2 Bears. Their third EP, Follow the Bears includes one of my favorite singles of the year so far, "Bear Hug," a refreshingly dumb party anthem. Check the video above and the stream/purchase links bellow. Cheers! [...]
