We celebrated our Los Angeles Indian Summer last night by bringing a bottle of wine and some BBQ Kettle Chips to The Hollywood Bowl to catch Wilco on their last night of a long tour. We love Wilco, but to be honest we’re not sure how prepared we were for how amazing their live show […]

Like billions of other people around the world, we were sitting around with our family last month watching the closing ceremonies of the 2012 London Olympic Games when our dad joked “when are we going to see someone on here with a COUCH guitar strap?” Crazily enough, 5 minutes later, Rock and Roll Hall of […]

We were watching our favorite band’s Youtubes for Coachella 2012- and that certainly includes Portland Oregon’s (and D.C.’s) Wildflag’s performance of their single Romance. We already had seen their SXSW 2012 version, but the quality of this one’s much better. Anyway, holy crap, guitarist Carrie Brownstein is fully rocking a Couch 80’s Mercedes Guitar Strap […]

Multi-instrumentalist, singer- songwriter, Andrew Bird and his band stopped by Comedy Central’s The Colbert Report for a quick interview recently; and to play 2 songs off their new record “Break It Yourself”. Luckily, we happened to be watching the show to see the performance, because we noticed guitar player Jeremy Ylvisaker was wearing a Couch […]

We were pretty excited when Brian May’s equipment manager called us up at Couch about getting the multi platinum Queen guitarist some straps. Needless to say it was cool when this video surfaced recently of Brian performing at Italy’s HUGE San Remo Festival and television event with his Black Byloos Couch Guitar Strap. Brian performed […]

It was by a random act of Facebookness that we ran into these profile pictures of The Muff’s Kim Shattuck with her Racer X Couch Guitar Strap the other day! We’ve been fans of The Muffs since we were little kids so it’s always brilliant at Couch when we see people we love and admire […]

We were stoked to see that UK’s biggest rock/alt/metal magazine Kerrang! featured Rise To Remain on a recent cover. Like the cover says, EMI Record’s Rise To Remain are “Leading the rebirth of British Rock”. They have toured with Iron Maiden, Funeral For a Friend, and done the Soundwave and Sonisphere Festivals. They’ve received airplay […]

Blondie was just in Los Angeles for a show at Club Nokia in LA Live. Before heading out of town the band stopped off at NBC’s The Tonight Show With Jay Leno to play their new single Mother. We were stoked to see Blondie guitar player Tommy Kessler was wearing his Dark Red Skullphone Guitar […]

Thanks go out to Alternative Press for the full page interview with Couch founder Daniel Perkins in the brand new issue of Alternative Press Magazine. We are stoked the guys and gals there at AP put is in their mag, (October issue with members of Blink 182 on the cover). This magazine is huge and […]

We’ve been getting a few emails lately from some pretty big latin artists who wear our straps and we couldn’t be happier. Pictured below is Rick Jeschke Deliz “soundchecking & getting ready to play second show of 3 with HA*ASH (Sony) opening for SHAKIRA, with my Virgin Guadalupe Couch strap! and 50,000+ audience @ show […]
