"The Duelin' Duos" Summer Tour w/ The Gold Hope Duo & Looka Looka Looka!


Couch By Couchwest '13 alumni The Gold Hope Duo are embarking on a summer tour with the duo Looka, Looka, Looka dubbed "The Duelin' Duos" Tour. Guaranteed to be a rabble rousing good time. Event FB page, Dates listed below>

The Gold Hope Duo
Lara Hope
Matt "The Knife" Goldpaugh
Stripped down upbeat Rhythm & Blues, Country, folk and a pinch of Rockabilly, The Gold Hope Duo is a joint effort between front-persons Lara Hope and Matt "The Knife" Goldpaugh. Lara strums the guitar while Matt slaps the Upright Bass or picks the 5 String Banjo. They share percussion duties with their fast feet and live by the motto "If you can't do it, kazoo it!" Their powerful voices intertwine, harmonize and amaze.



Looka, Looka Looka
Lucio: 6-string wood box, kazoo, percussion, screeches
Steve Satch: Contrabass slapper & deep booms

Looka Looka Looka originally started on the streets of Cleveland in early 2012, playing in front of a tip jar made from an old soup can. The traveling noisemakers have been known to employ a selection of instruments from fiddle, accordion & washboard, to trumpets, trombones and saxophones. They deliver a home-made brand they call "dumpster-swing" from state to state as they travel across the U.S. with plans to see the world. Dumpster-Swing [duhmp-ster - swing]: a meld of trash-folk, gypsy-swing, jazz & blues
Coined by guitarist/singer Andrew Pino, this is the name given to such noises produced by a traveling, bourbon-soaked parlor-act with mixed musical interests & a wander-lust to boot.
