Biography

GoldTooth was formed in the fall of 2006 as a response to the pretentious singer/songwriter scene emerging in St. Louis. The GoldTooth vision was to create a sound that paid homage to acts such as AC/DC, Motorhead, and Helmet with big guitars, thunderous bass, powerful drums, and commanding vocals. The original line-up included Jeff Gallo (guitar/vocals), Wil Pelly (bass), and Brian “The Kid” Hilgert (drums). The band’s debut album, “Ghetto Blaster”, was recorded and released in late 2007. Several songs, including Weight of the World, Repent, Engine No. 9, and Gold Tooth receive airplay on nationally recognized rock radio staple KSHE-95 and local alternative radio station KDHX 88.1. In 2008, drummer Joe Meyer joined GoldTooth, bringing a renewed energy to the band. Look for GoldTooth to tour regionally touting their second full-length CD “Solid Gold”.
