The Everyday Visuals is a group of five young gentlemen playing rock music with independent spirit. The current line up was formed in the spring of 2006:
Christopher Pappas (Vocals, guitar, keyboards) has an irrational fear of being a passenger in a fast moving car and cries every time he hears the Durfle Requiem.
Eli Scheer (Guitar, vocals, keyboards) has a family member in every U.S. time zone and likes to meet people with a good story to tell.
Joseph Seiders (Drums, vocals, keyboards) should eat more vegetables and panics when he feels his heart beating.
Chris Zembower (Moral support, confidant) is a friend.
Kyle Fredrickson (Guitar, keyboards) is frequently late and at age 16 hid the first electric guitar he bought from his mother for three months.
PRESS and PRAISES
We just were awarded "Best Rock Band" in The Improper Bostonian's Best Of issue. Thank you.
Here are some other kind things people have said:
"...rapture; pop ecstasy suspended in suddenly rarified air...melodic rock music as deceptively intricate as it is transparently accessible, stirred with just the right admixture of cheeky irreverence and soulful sincerity." - The Boston Globe
"Clearly, this band doesn’t manufacture song after song with the same pop formula – they allow the songs to go where they want…The record is full of songs born out of excitement and pure idea-driven joy." - Pen's Eye View
""The Everyday Visuals craft soothing, coffeehouse pop that would put a smile on even the most jaded of indie-snobs." - Drum! Magazine
"This album is one that shouldn't be passed on. It's a great example of classic pop music with meaning." - Performer Magazine
"Harmony rich Boston popsters with more hooks than a Gorton's Fish market." -CMJ
"Solid pop music with beautiful melodies over shimmering musical arrangements."
-Consequence of Sound
"The band has seamlessly melded their airy harmonies while retaining their subtle pop songs into a S/T full-length perfect for a hazy summer drive."
-Weekly Dig
"...a solid album of good, rich music."
-The Aquarian [Grade: B]
""This band is quite adept at harmonies and crafting a wall of sound that would make Brian Wilson and Phil Spector quake in their boots."
-Campus Circle
"The band combines indie, pop, heavy guitar, folk, Beach Boys-esque harmonies, effervescent vocals. ...the result of these different elements is indeed a sound that offers something for everyone without sounding contrived or unoriginal." - RocknRoll Boston
"We're addicted to this local band's hooked-filled tunes and glorious harmonies."
-Boston Magazine
"...their breezy alt/pop is chorus-driven in the best way, catchy and never denying a satisfying release." - The Portland Phoenix
"The Everyday Visuals have the makings of serious rock gods among mere rock men...The band just clicks and you can’t help but want to join them, dance upon (read: worship) the very ground before them." - WERS (88.9 FM) VIDEOS

A lady was picking through the frozen turkeys at the grocery store, but couldn't find one big enough for her family. She asked the stock boy, 'Do these turkeys get any bigger?'

"DJ Monkey …soul-stirring, excitingly edgy music…just disturbing (read ‘mind-f**king’) enough to demand attention. There is a whole spice rack of auditory flavors here, served up like fractured poetry on a collection of intensely listenable Hallmark cards from Hell." Bill Margold, Cinema Seen, L.A. X..Press
