Yeah. We were blinded by the light.
Deconstructing Jim is Brennen Chouinard (drums), Jeff Julian (voc/guitar), and Matt Yeager (voc/bass) all of whom hail from southwestern Chicagoland. The three-piece band tours as often as their day jobs allow them—more than 150 shows in the past four years. That’s where they’ve honed their live shows, which are punctuated by a thunderous rhythm section, dual lead vocal harmonies, and intricately written songs.
The band has many influences—Ron Sexsmith, The Beatles, Houston, Jawbox, Queens of the Stone Age, and Muse—just to name a few. But what drives Deconstructing Jim is their love of cold beer, new towns, and dirty rock venues.
Deconstructing Jim has begun work on the follow-up to 2007's “A Future Told by Swords” EP. The band will once again work with Jeff Halland (ex-Houston) in his new St. Paul, MN, studio. The project, which is tentatively titled "Self Indulgent Bastards," is slated to be released in May 2009 as a 10-song album.
