Mammoth Life’s Nicholas Goss on the band’s new EP, Rock N’ Roll Kids, and its upcoming move to San Francisco

Lawrence pop act Mammoth Life has been an intriguing part of the local landscape ever since its debut six years ago. Whether playing an album release or simply a Thursday night at the Jackpot, the band is meticulous in its presentation. The members dress in uniforms that are more akin to costumery, visually calling to mind a blend of ’60s hippie and 16th-century dandy.

Recently, the band has pared down from what would at times be six or seven members onstage to a simple duo, consisting of husband and wife Nicholas and Elizabeth Goss. They release their newest recording, the EP Rock N’ Roll Kids, tonight at the Jackpot (Cloud Dog and Cowboy Indian Bear open). 

It’s also the band’s farewell local performance, as the Gosses are moving to San Francisco at the conclusion of the tour in support of Rock N’ Roll Kids.

We emailed with Nicholas Goss recently about the band’s new EP and upcoming move.
