With Bear Down Bear, Jeff and Jessey Eagan double down on nostalgia rock with a strong sense of humor. They combine simple melodies with tight vocal harmonies to craft songs that evoke fond, awkward memories of simpler times when grades and friends were of utmost concern. Although they perform as an acoustic duo, when recording, they prefer to craft a full-band sound sonically reminiscent of The Format, The Head & The Heart, and Pedro the Lion. Over the past 20-plus years, they have performed under multiple names and in many different states, but began playing in Tucson and throughout Arizona in 2025. Bear Down Bear has performed at multiple festivals and venues, including Sidepony Express Festival, Flagstaff Folk Festival, Wooden Tooth Records, Slow Body Beer, and many others.
