Eisley

with The Myriad, Vedera

May 19, 2008

7:00 pm

Presented by Lucky Man Concerts

Perhaps you’ve seen them on tour with such quaint little bands as Coldplay, Mute Math or Snow Patrol, or at intimate little gatherings like Coachella.

Tyler, Texas’ Eisley describe themselves best in their “Sounds Like” section on their MySpace page:

Indie Rock, (on a major; but that’s just a style vs status issue). Emotional but not Emo (stop saying emo). Pop but not so popular (Warhol did pop in a commercial way. Rauchenberg did pop in fine art way). Soul-ful but not Soul, Dream-pop, but not a Dreamsicle (well, maybe… if dark chocolate replaced the vanilla interior). Alt (because AP magazine says so.) but not alternative…Maybe if the Fathers of “Alt” endorsed it, but Stipe or Cobaine will never agree. Haunting but not in an evil way; not like a scary, scary clown. Folkish (sometimes) but not country. Catchy - like when you catchy a fishy. Moody but not e-winey. Melodic - yes.very. Rock but take it out of the rock-tumbler after only 3 days (more than that and they get too polished. some disagree. we like guitars in tune and all that shizzle) Radio Rock? Not so far; the machine says they’re not “broad” enuf’ lyrically, so maybe that’s good; Radio = dumbie downio. sorry, but eisley’s music does not compare to the man-rock drawl that dominates the current dying, radio regime (dominion?). College Radio? - yes. Web Radio? - yes.

Backing this thang up are Seattle faves and MTV2’s Breakout Artists of the Year The Myriad and Vedera.

Peep Eisley’s video for “Invasion” right here. These ladies can sang.
