Brad Barr is the band's core
songwriter and one of the great rock
guitarists of his generation. He has
also joined an adult softball
league. Brad is the troubadour whos
absorbed it all, from Blonde on
Blonde to Bitches Brew. He has the
ability to do almost anything on six
strings, yet consistently plays with
taste, context and humility,
understanding the awesome power of
three chords and a simple melody to
bring people in.
Marc Friedman is mission control on
bass guitar, the foundation keeping
it all together. Marc brings the
nutmeg and the cinnamon.
Andrew Barr is the engine and the
source of the bands chaos and primal
energy, adding thunder and lightning
to the intimacy of a heartbeat.
Which brings us to Eisenhower. After
drilling deep within their home
studios over the almost five years
since their last studio release, the
band finally entered the Q-Division
Studios in Boston to create a
stunning album that brings
adventure, daring, and honest
songwriting back to the annals of
rock. The band's first release for
Bar/None Records, this is music that
points to the future, synthesizing
older influences like The Beatles,
Bach, and Led Zeppelin while also
engaging in a current dialogue with
the likes of Built to Spill, Iron &
Wine and Wilco.
