Eureka California at Examiner
Other than the name, Eureka California holds no association to the town of Eureka nor the state of California. It is a band from Athens, GA (by way of NC) known for its raw blustery sound built around crunchy guitar riffs and the right amount of fuzziness. Head honcho Jake Ward is the brains, heart,… Continue reading Eureka California at Examiner

Witching Waves / High Violets / Great Lakes / Eureka California / deardarkhead at Babysue
We’ve always felt there’s been a void in the world of music since The Fastbacks released their unbelievable string of knockout albums in the 1980s and 1990s.

Eureka California at Innocent Words
Eureka California from Athens, GA announce the release of their new album “Versus” on HHBTM Records on March 25th, 2016. Endlessly self-referential and endlessly self-destructive, stuck on an endless treadmill of tension & release, of megalomania & doubt. Agoraphobic fight songs for the masses. The wit of a young Elvis Costello, the heart and reckless… Continue reading Eureka California at Innocent Words
Eureka California at Austin Town Hall
The last time we heard from Eureka California was back in 2014 with their album, Crunch (you should already own that one by now). They returned this week with this exhilarating rocker, fueled by distorted guitars and an earnest vocal performance. Before you know it, the song’s over and you press play again, taking you… Continue reading Eureka California at Austin Town Hall
