“Many bands preach the virtues of collaboration and cooperation, but few practice those dynamics as virtuously as the San Francisco four-piece outfit Galore.“ SF Examiner  

San Francisco based Galore releases their second full length album, Dirt, on July 25, 2025 on Speakeasy Studios SF.

With multiple songwriters and vocalists, sinuous intersecting harmonies and an intensely communal creative process, Galore — bassist Ava Rosen, guitarist Griffin Jones, guitarist Ainsley Wagoner, and drummer Hannah Smith — embodies the spirit of a true musical collective. 

The album was collaboratively produced by Galore, Jason Kick, and Simi Sohota, recorded and mixed by Jason Kick at Santo Studios and Tunnel Vision in Oakland, California over the course of 2024. The band took their time to write songs, craft sonic moments, and build an album that mixes Galore’s intensely catchy pop melodies, with dynamic layers of fuzzed and jangly guitars, warm wurlitzers, sound effects, layers of uniquely-Galore vocal harmonies,(which are almost counter melodies in themselves), over the steady rhythm section of drummer Smith and bassist Rosen, with a groove that pushes forward, drawing the melodies into momentum that flows through the whole album.  Dirt draws on their multitude of influences, touched on, like throwing a nod to all the colors in sound, but making a painting of your own.  Or digging in the dirt, uncovering something new or finding creative connections in the collaborative process of recording an album.  Through their process of creating in such a synergetic fashion, Galore is a band that always reminds us all that we are not alone, and that we can find comfort or a lift in the face of despair through collective catharsis, channeling hope.  

Dirt comes out July 25, 2025 on Speakeasy Studios SF.
