Eisenhauer
Filed Under: Folk, Indie
EISENHAUER has been a band since 2006, when they released ‘TO THOSE IMPRESSED’ – a varied album cross pollinating Pinback style indie-rock and Neil Young style folk music.
A busy Canadian tour schedule ensued for about two years, where the band began to learn how to perform, while discovering more about who they were musically.
After performing new material for several months of touring, EISENHAUER recorded their sophomore release, ‘TIME OF YEAR’. At the time, it seemed there was a lot more direction in the sonic feel of the music.
After many, many more Canadian shows in bars with next to no people (from Vancouver to St. John’s Newfoundland), Eisenhauer began to turn to performing in homes and small halls, rather than bars. It noticeably softened the sound of the band, and began to shape into something more ‘folk sounding’ than desired by main songwriter, Jeremy Eisenhauer.
Around a year and half ago, Jeremy decided it was time for a break from his own music. He devoted most of his time to writing and performing with his wife, Sheree Plett, who was releasing a new album at the time, and they performed numerous shows all over Canada with their band ‘Eastside Jubilee’.
During his break from performing as ‘EISENHAUER’, Jeremy delved into genre’s of music more rooted to his formative years of music. He formed a four piece punk band called PODVIG with his little brother Jordan, and friends Aaron and Christian Zenga (of the film making/bike building fame ‘Zenga Bros’).
In playing more aggressive music for a year or so, while focusing on laborious work in carpentry, and becoming a father, Jeremy has written a new group of songs all based around the idea of Labor and Manhood. The resulting sound is much more bare, and more aggressive than previous material.
EISENHAUER is returning to the stage soon in Vancouver to celebrate their 5 year anniversary. They are also hoping to release a new EP or full album in 2011, and there is talk of a tour again this summer for the first time in two years.
