Good Old War is a band featuring former members of Days Away.

Biography

Good Old War is made up of Keith Goodwin, Daniel Schwartz, and Tim Arnold. The band was started after Days Away (former band of Keith and Tim) went on hiatus. They recorded some demos for free in a late night session at a recording studio. They have played with Anthony Green on a short stint of dates along the east coast and also at the South by Southwest (SXSW) festival in Texas, as Anthony’s backing band. They are currently on Sargent House, a label which also serves as a management company whose roster includes: RX Bandits, These Arms Are Snakes, Maps & Atlases, Daughters, Love You Moon, Red Sparowes, Tera Melos, Russian Circles, and Nurses. The band recorded their debut album in May 2008 in Los Angeles, with producer Rick Parker who also produced the final EP from Days Away entitled Ear Candy for the Headphone Trippers. Good Old War recorded Anthony Green's album "Avalon" with him as his band, and will be performing as his band in addition to playing direct support as Good Old War, with Person L (a project featuring Kenny Vasoli of the Starting Line) for a nationwide headlining tour that begins August 6th through September 14th, 2008. Anthony Green makes a guest vocal appearance on the track Weak Man along with Dave Davison from the band Maps & Atlases who plays a guest guitar solo also on Weak Man.

Trivia

* Tim Arnold and Keith Goodwin were in Days Away.
* Singer Keith Goodwin also appears on the song 'Left Coast Envy' by The Starting Line.
* Goodwin also appears on "Lover, the Lord Has Left Us...", the second album by The Sound of Animals Fighting.
* The story behind how band got the name Good Old War was detailed in a Myspace blog post.

So we started out just calling this project Keith Dan & Tim - KDT for short. Then we picked the name Castles - but a bunch of other bands are called Castles and when we asked people what names they liked a lot of people just said KDT representing our three first names. Well we took our three last names but figured if we called it Goodwin, Arnold & Schwartz we sound like a law firm - so we took pieces of each and hence our new name is born: GOOD OLD WAR.
which pretty much also represents our feeling about the struggle in making music so we are throwing our hats into the GOOD OLD WAR again and can only hope people will enjoy the music we make.

much love
keith (good)win
tim arn(old)
dan sch(war)tz
