It’s not everyday that you hear a band like The Gums. Hailing from the ancient city of Lud, The Gums are known up and down the path of the beam for their signature blend of riff skankin swamp punk.

Shortly after the world began to move on, Sam Code (guitar, lead vocals) left behind a life-long career as a tollbooth operator when he found a collection of arcane recordings in an abandon hab unit. The audiodisks awakened within him deep passions of a lost time, and he hasn’t slept regular since. Colin, (bass, backup vocals) journeyman assassin from an Interlocutor sect, turned his back on contract killing after visiting Lud for the first time. Enchanted by the sounds of Lud and its vibrant nightlife, Colin made fast friends with Lud’s people and never thought twice about it. Cameron (drums) arrived on the scene, emerging from a fallen space satellite on the outskirts of town. Remembering only his name and a series of 32 digit binary access codes, Cameron speaks well, and was even town hero for a week or so before joining The Gums.

The Gums drive a hard sound. They shrug in the face of a madness that’s slowly eating Midworld. The Gums set their sights on a simpler time, when Gunslingers walked the amongst us, and people could be people any old time of day. After touring stretches of the beam for years in search of the mythical land of Credence where the water runs clear, they somehow wound up in 21st century Oakland with no money, and that’s where they live today.
