The Goat & the Occasional Others is a Los Angeles-based garage band formed in 2007 by two skateboarders with too much time on their hands and too much creative energy to keep bottled up.
Andrew Reynolds (guitar) and Shane Heyl (vocals) were quickly joined by their good friends and fellow professional skateboarders Kevin “Spanky” Long (guitar) and Beagle Oneism (drums) to create the Goat’s first record, a vinyl self-titled 10” EP released in 2008 as a promotional item in very limited quantities by Altamont Apparel Ltd., Reynolds’ skateboard clothing company. The album featured the band logo and cover artwork designed by the notorious graffiti writer Neck Face. Soon after this first release, The Goat added award-winning skateboard photographer Atiba Jefferson on keyboards to complete the line up.
Through this much sought after release and some energetic and intense early live shows, The Goat quickly established a cult following amongst everyone from their fellow professional skateboarders like Eric Koston and Guy Mariano, to plus-sized porn model Crystal Clear and movie actor Ryan Gosling. Gosling, who is also a musician, introduced the band to the label Werewolf Heart Records, Gosling’s label for his band Dead Man’s Bones, owned by his bandmate Zach Shields and record producer/ Ima Robot band member Tim Anderson.
In late 2009, The Goat recorded their first full length entitled “The Goat Speaks,” which was released in early 2010 on Werewolf Heart, and the last few years have seen the band working on new songs, playing a few select shows, and of course, working on whatever skateboarding projects they’re all involved in. The Goat has toured with No Age and Bad Shit, and has shared the stage with Dinosaur Jr, Bad Brains, JFA, Arctic, Harsh Toke, and more. They’ve also toured as part of Thrasher Magazine’s Skate Rock. Additionally, the Goat has been featured in numerous skate and music publications, including Thrasher, Transworld Skateboarding, Rolling Stone, Pitchfork.com and more... Despite all the accolades, loyal skateboard fans need not fret, the band has no plans of quitting their day jobs anytime soon!
