The Furious Bears

About Me

After having formed in late 2006, the four Furious Bears are ready to escape and rampage around West Yorkshire and beyond. Equally at home at the Teddy Bears' Picnic or crashing through the forest, they make noisy melodic pop to dance to, growl to and turn your fairytales upside down.Gig highlight so far - playing at the amazing Ladyfest Leeds, at Joseph's Well! If you want us to play at yr gig/houseparty/other such event, the best way to get in touch is sending us a message on myspace, or you can also email us at thefuriousbears @ gmail.com and we will type laboriously but furiously with our big bear claws and write back!
