About Me

Don Bear is two people playing music with each other's best interests at heart. The songs are written, played, and recorded in a basement in Bristol. We've been doing it for a while and have seen little in the way of stadium shows or those tour-buses where you can sleep in bunks and that. The time is spent tinkering, rehearsing and congratulating ourselves. The Performances? Rare. The Why? Now there's a question...
