   About Southeast Engine

Southeast Engine is an indie-folk-rock band from Athens, OH. With the help of The Wrens, the group signed with Misra Records in 2007 and released their first internationally distributed album - A Wheel Within A Wheel - later that year.

Press for A Wheel Within A Wheel:

"Athens, Ohio's Southeast Engine see the light and release a rock opera of self-doubt and redemption... the music often matches the soul dividing sturm und drang driving the disc. It's rock opera, part Dante, part indie du jour, bombastic, to be sure, but never hectoring as it makes its way to moral détente."
- Pitchfork Media

"...There are three albums now - Love Is A Murder, Coming to Terms with Gravity, and the new one, A Wheel Within A Wheel, which is one of my favorite albums of 2007." - Andy Whitman
Paste - Top 10 Albums of 2007 - Number 2 - Writer Picks

"Other albums I can strongly recommend include Southeast Engine's Misra debut, "A Wheel Within A Wheel."
- Brooklyn Vegan

"Not once have I been able to stop myself from hitting repeat when "A Wheel Within A Wheel" ends. Two or three spins are necessary each time to really roll around in all the pleasures hiding here. Don't be surprised if you clap your hands or sing loud enough to bother folks in the car next to you. Southeast Engine are super smart, rock savvy guys and they've made a great record for thinkers who love power chords and heartbreaking ruminations.

History:

Southeast Engine was formed in 2000 by Adam Remnant (lead vocals, guitar) and Leo DeLuca (drum kit, percussion). Both attended the same high school in Dayton, Ohio and grew up in "The Gem City" during its musical heyday of the 1990s. Underground bands like Guided By Voices, Brainiac, and Swearing At Motorists made significant and long-standing impressions upon the two youngsters.

Around 2000, the pair moved to Athens, Ohio and were equally inspired by the Appalachian old-timey and folk music of the area. Thus, Southeast Engine is a unique hybrid of the Dayton, Ohio musical underground and the Athens, Ohio folk scene.

Longstanding member, Michael Lachman (keyboards, Wandering Genie) began playing with the band soon after its formation. The three are now joined by Jesse Remnant (Adam's younger brother) on bass guitar and harmony vocals. Josh Antonuccio played on, engineered, and helped produce the group's last two records at 3 Elliott Studio in Athens, Ohio. Conrad Dillon played on, engineered, and helped produce the group's first 2 records at 178 N. Congress St. in Athens, Ohio.

The Wrens (Absolutely Kosher Records) have been pivotal to Southeast Engine's progression. The two bands played together for the first time in 2005. Charles Bissell, songwriter for The Wrens, really took to Southeast Engine's music and lead the band to Cory Brown of Absolutely Kosher / Misra Records. The band signed to Misra in February of 2007 and released A Wheel Within A Wheel later that year.

From the Forest to the Sea is the title of the group's next album. Recording will commence in an abandoned 1800s high school auditorium in the heart of Appalachian Ohio.

I really loved your show last night at the festival, although I ended up spilling beer on the drummer and blabbing to the keyboardist about how great you are. You know, it's always about me. Rock on, sirs.
