"They certainly amplified the energy level of the audience. With song titles like “Get Down On Your Knees and Tell me You Love Me” and “Clenched Fists,” Bearhug presents a macho-rock sensibility. If you’re a fan of Black Flag, or Minor Threat, you’ll appreciate Bearhug’s work. Thick guitar riffs paired with tinny drums, this is the kind of music you listen after a bad day when you just want to break faces." - Colleen McCarty, Independent Cause
"Bearhug: Tulsa premier pissed off kids with fast songs about being insane and running from the cops. These guys have such a pure, adolescent anger that you cannot help but sing along. I saw them in the Dragon’s Lair over on 11th St, which explains the rebel flag in the picture. That bar used to scare me when it was a gnarly-ass biker bar and we drove past it when I was a kid. As it turns out, that fear was still lingering inside me last Saturday." - bloodreddirt.com

Bio
Pieced together in late 2009 from the scattered remains of the scene we played in while in high school. Got to know each other from spending way too much time in bars.
We are influenced by a lot of bands, with regard to what we play. Minor Threat, Black Flag, 7 Seconds, Suicidal Tendencies, and Madball are all very big influences to us.
We like energetic crowds.
