E*I*E*I*O*...est.1983
...the most joyous chunks of randy rock & soul
on either side of the midnight hour...
...A dynamic collection of locomotive rock & twang...
-rolling stone magazine.
...by turning down the pretentious introspection, cracking up the fun, and infusing their records with sheer exuberance, they are strictly a cut above the competition.... -spin magazine.
The huge success of their CDs , Land of Opportunity,
and That Love Thang, left an indelible mark on the independent music industry.
This lead them out on the road touring with and influencing some of the worlds biggest bands while songs like Cecelie, and Tear it Down burned their way up the charts.
E*I*E*I*O* members strive to make the music as accessible
and enjoyable as ever. With a style considered by many as
a cross between country, blues, punk and old time rock and roll,
labels like roots rockers, and alternative became synonymous with their name.
To their benefit E*I*E*I*O* remains on the rock and roll side
of the cross genre, and their staying power lies within their
talented writing and their high caliber of musicianship.
With their long awaited 3rd CD Rock and Roll Legs due for release in early 2007, fans continue to pack the venues where ever they perform. Come see why E*I*E*I*O* is one of the best bands to ever emerge from Middle America.
Looking forward to seeing the LIVE show in Rockford. I saw one of the first shows at a Guilford High (Rockford) dance-thingy, and my last show at Burbon Street (Rockford) with Bill on bass. I really like the new CD (2007) and all those great songs on it that were played ALIVE show after show.
Heya, thanks for the add. I caught you guys live a time or two way back when, and I still have my vinyl copies of your records (still in great shape too!). Rock on... and hopefully I can catch another performance one of these days!
Stirring music mein freunds,throw in heavy doses of sex,greed,betrayal and ruthlessness and all of it warmly embraced by Hitler..Oh,I'm sorry,I was describing Wagner,..you guys are cool.Me and my brother put on sackcloths and beat our breasts to your junk.It reminds me of my NaNa when she would hum "Ringen die Nibelungen"over and over while I combed her filthy hair.
