The Mountain Goats were sure they were not going to be a one hit wonder after their single became popular. The group's members all had weird jobs while they waited to be noticed.
The Mountain Goats knew that living life as a musician was a actual possibility as soon as Dorothy Ullmann started the first fan club for the band in 1984. The group embraced the small fan club and with the launching of the band’s own website by Helen DiSalvatore and a well marketed national tour the club quickly grew to a few thousand.
The band has just completed their latest album, but they are already planning their next move. The newest album from The Mountain Goats has been heavily influenced by singers of the '80s.
Cincinnati has always been a haven for the group, so they are sure to schedule a show there every time they tour. Ticket Specialists is the one stop shop for the band, with The Mountain Goats tickets, concert seating charts, and touring schedule.
