Hope For Agoldensummer is a 5-piece living and working in the fine towns of Athens and Atlanta, GA. A junkyard orchestra. An anarchist soul choir. They create rusty, gutter angel melodies in a sweaty, old, yellow house. This family has been together for 2.5 years, and each member continues to grow and develop the talents necessary to create the desired sounds. All five members play a variety of instruments: slide guitar, cello, eclectic percussion, xylophone, singing saw, piano and coke bottles. The defining trait of the band lies in the frighteningly beautiful vocals, which are executed primarily by vocalists Claire and Page Campbell. As sisters, their voices are similar enough to mesh with each other flawlessly, yet they are different enough to represent two distinct approaches to the material at hand. The instrumentation relies heavily on Will Taylor’s fancy cello stylings and the tasteful brush work of drummer Jamie Shepard. Deb Davis is their Johnny-on-the-spot, maneuvering from accordion to guitar to xylophone.

Hope was recently described as Atlanta’s "Best Organic Experience" by the Creative Loafing Newspaper: " Kudos to Athens outfit HOPE FOR AGOLDENSUMMER… Fronted by the sisters Campbell, this troupe plays everything from traditional guitars to less frequent tools like cheese graters and Coke bottles. On their debut, I Bought A Heart Made Of Art In The Deep, Deep South, Hope For Agoldensummer balances the beautiful harmonies of the Campbells with a multi-layered symphony of eclectic instrumentation. It’s transcendent, it’s DIY, it’s divine and it’s totally enviro-friendly."

Their first album, "Heart Of Art", was recorded on tape over a span of 1.5 years in Commerce and Cabbagetown, GA. The band has taken every effort to ensure that their merchandise meets the highest ethical standards. The album is packaged entirely in 100% PCW recycled paper and printed with soy-based ink by a worker-owned press in Oregon, USA. "Heart Of Art" was named the #1 local album of 2004 by Flagpole Magazine (Athens, GA) putting them in the company of heavyweights like Drive-By Truckers, Now It’s Overhead, Vic Chestnutt and Of Montreal.
