Don’t call it a comeback…again.
Northwestern experimental rock group Gatsbys American Dream might be up to something again. On their social medias, the band updated their cover photo on Facebook and their Twitter icon. Could this mean a second reunion is going down?
Gatsbys American Dream formed in 2001 in Seattle, creating four albums in total, two with Rocketstar Recordings and the last with Fearless Records (Locket, My Kid Brother, The Plot In You.) Throughout their career, GAD have toured and performed with bands like Armor For Sleep, Emery, and The Starting Line, and played the Vans Warped Tour twice in 2005 (Boys Night Out, Greeley Estates, Scary Kids Scaring Kids) and for a day in 2011 (Dance Gavin Dance, I Set My Friends On Fire, Relient K.) They pulled out of the festival in 2006.
The band reunited back in 2010 with a secret performance during a show with Forgive Durden. They dropped two new tracks with Equal Vision Records (Glacier Veins, Kaonashi, Sleep On It) called “Modern Man” and “Born Dead” (later retitled as “Untitled” following the 2011 Yunnan earthquake) and that was it. Soon, the troupe vanished come early 2013 after frontman Nic Newsham tweeted that their reunion album was unfinished and would probably remain that way.
While no official word has come out yet, all we can do is wait. Come back to us, Gatsby.
