Goldheart Assembly is an English alternative pop/rock band from London, England. ==History== Goldheart Assembly formed in 2007, as a group of six musicians from various bands. They met at club nights, at Covent Garden’s Rock Garden, run by now-bandleader James Dale and magician Pete Hathway. Slowly, after a period of “band hopping and stand ins,” a stable line-up became Goldheart Assembly, who bonded over a mutual love of The Beatles and named themselves after a Guided By Voices tune, Goldheart Mountaintop Queen Directory. Founding members James Dale and John Herbert often joke about how they met whilst working as zookeepers at Whipsnade Zoo. In 2009, they recorded a live session for Steve Lamacq on BBC Radio 1, being the first unsigned band to do so "in years".〔() 〕 In the same year, the band performed on the BBC Introducing Stage at the Glastonbury Festival, as well as a slot at the Camden Crawl〔 and appearances at Isle of Wight,〔()〕 Wychwood,〔()〕 Middlesbrough Music Live, Reading, Leeds and V festivals. Goldheart Assembly’s debut single, a double A-side featuring the tracks "So Long St. Christopher" and "Oh Really", was released on 15 June 2009 on the independent label Heron Recordings.〔()〕 In late 2009, Goldheart Assembly signed to the independent UK label Fierce Panda Records. Their debut album, ''Wolves and Thieves'', was released to digital download on 8 March 2010, with CD release on 15 March. The majority of the album was recorded at Forncett Industrial Steam Museum in Norfolk, England, and several tracks feature the sound of live steam engines. The remaining tracks were recorded at Jools Holland's Helicon studios with British producer Laurie Latham. In June 2010, it was announced that guitarist Dominic Keshavarz had left the band. It was announced in January 2011 that the band has started to produce a new LP.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.myspace.com/goldheartassembly/blog )〕 ''Long Distance Sound Effects'', their second album, was released in July 2013. The Allmusic journalist, Heather Phares, noted that "the control and variety they display throughout ''Long Distance Song Effects'' shows that Goldheart Assembly have come into their own here". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Goldheart Assembly」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
