What to expect

An audience member should expect an incredibly lively and energetic performance by a tight, well-rehearsed, and professional act playing all-original compositions. Our set tends to flow smoothly from track with very light amounts of banter, instead relying on backing tracks and brief interludes to link the performance together.

About

In 2010, brothers Alex and Zack Goodenough began writing material for what would become later known as Golgatha. In 2011, Golgatha completed their first lineup and began conquering the Dallas/ Fort Worth music scene playing in multiple venues throughout the area! The band has played with acts such as Asking Alexandria, Trivium, Whitechapel, Victory Heights, We Came as Romans, Impending Doom, Born of Osiris, The Early November, For Today and Motionless in White. With two EP's under their belts making waves in the music industry, the band certainly has a bright future ahead for themselves.

Additional booking notes

We require the following at every show:
1. Hospitality
- At least six bottles of water for the performers on stage
- Five towels
2. Equipment / PA
- PA system must consist of high-quality and current components.
- Must be capable of outputting high SPL levels (minimum of 115db) for the duration of the set without distortion or feedback.
- All instruments (except bass guitar) must be reliably mic'd up - this includes both guitar amps, the main drum kit (consisting of one bass drum, two snares, and four toms), and at least two microphones for both vocalists.
- Enough monitors on-stage for each of the five performers.

Set list

Our setlists typically vary from show to show but are written out and rehearsed a minimum of three weeks in advance, and may include any track from our current discography (the "Somnium Attacca" and "Revelations" EPs) or new material planned for upcoming releases. We usually only play all original material, however, if there are any songs you would like to hear us preform, both from our own discography and also any covers, do not hesitate to ask! We aim to please at every performance.

Influences and inspiration

We believe that there is a lesson to be learned from all music, however, some of our biggest influences would include the following acts: Killswitch Engage, Dream Theater, Protest the Hero, Opeth, Periphery, Faith No More, Guthrie Govan, and Porcupine Tree.

Setup requirements

Two vocal mics (one standard and one boom or two boom will work)

We're not terribly picky, but we do require adequate room for five members, half stack guitar rigs, and a decently large 6 piece drum set-up to co-exist comfortably.
