Goldheart Assembly is a British alternative pop-rock band from London, England. The band formed in 2007 as a group of six musicians from various bands. They met at club nights at Covent Garden’s Rock Garden run by now-bandleaders James Dale and John Herbert. Slowly, after a period of “band hopping and stand-ins,” a stable line-up became Goldheart Assembly, who bonded over a mutual love of The Beatles and named themselves after a Guided By Voices tune, Goldheart Mountaintop Queen Directory.
