Andrew Briggs and Matt Pearn are the mind behind Eat More Cake , two fellow songwriters and producers who grew up playing classical music together, although they appear live in band format with Owen Charles, Alex Lane, and Kay Juliver-Bacon. Just by listening to some of their original songs, there's no doubt they are British and it shows by all the influences and how they sound.

Eat More Cake are a bit of all this [...]]]> text/html 2011-02-04T14:05:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3172165/one-eskimo-amazing-live-on-jimmy-kimmel/

'Nuff said. - Rube] Its been amazing and heartening to watch the Internet revolutionize the music industry: if the first ten years or so were all about distribution (first through online record stores and eBay, and then the creation of a previously unimaginable ubiquity via file sharing) then the next wave has been the utter destruction of gatekeepers through social networking.

Before you could say "I love you" 27 times, that song was pretty much everywhere, including your mom's playlist right in between the John Mayer and Jason Mraz songs. Next thing you know, Franti is reunited with his former label Capitol/EMI, which he left after his second [...]]]> text/html 2010-05-26T16:43:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/2575697/taste-of-randolph-and-green-music-fest-lineups-announced/
