We have been busy in the studio cranking out our second LP! It has been a real grueling process but we are really happy with the way things are turning out. We are lucky enough to work with our past recording engineer Joe Lunsford who has been with us from the beginning, as well as our new friend and brand new third member of Reading Rainbow, Al Creedon. The two of them have collaborated to bring our analog sound into the modern world, in a sense. It has been mind blowing!<br /><br />Also we are heading up to NYC next week to play a couple shows at CMJ, but more importantly to mix our album with two gentlemen we respect a lot! More details on that soon.<br /><br />In the mean time might I suggest this album:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9CTqinxsKLhwPH9CLWVQ5xV0MsvRrnGa2sLQ91mLCFK9OVFCOUayrYNY6HedEXYv-8nJLrvbUR9xm3cMWoQMHMarfs9_m9yAQmExsZqysPQAwRKVNsJ6Ajo4vW0yj2je3xvUZ4uJ26sI/s1600/Psychedelic+Furs+-+1982+-+Forever+Now.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 314px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9CTqinxsKLhwPH9CLWVQ5xV0MsvRrnGa2sLQ91mLCFK9OVFCOUayrYNY6HedEXYv-8nJLrvbUR9xm3cMWoQMHMarfs9_m9yAQmExsZqysPQAwRKVNsJ6Ajo4vW0yj2je3xvUZ4uJ26sI/s320/Psychedelic+Furs+-+1982+-+Forever+Now.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5663326245292350738" border="0" /></a><br />I have been obsessed with it for a couple months now.

We are back from tour with Reading Rainbow. Best things about tour in random order:<br /><br />10. Sweet hangs at the Bottletree in Birmingham, AL<br />9. Listening to Agalloch in the van right before our Northampton show. grrrrrr!<br />8. Knowing that Rob and Al from RR were going to fix all our problems! Both with gear and life.<br />7. Stereotypical girl time with Sarah. Her hair looked great after we went to the salon! (teehee)<br />6. Finally paying attention to Jonathan's stage moves (better than bass face!)<br />5. Daniel's sweat drenched clothes after each show. He could wring out his shirt. PUNK!<br />4. Chocolate.<br />3. Listening to RR every night!<br />2. The raddest, most intelligent, most loyal fans ever! Blown away by your awesomeness!<br />1. Being with Reading Rainbow every day for 2 weeks!<br /><br />Here are some photos taken by our new favorite NYC photographer Maryanne Ventrice of our penultimate show at Glasslands in Brooklyn:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjddq9-nuXXeazi0dFtAmet1lHPqQt1Tb7F-ThyphenhyphenIhmLZPslROPDmw4Ev7nLA8dk9Sc3qxXYvZOtzdHBObf1DYmYJ3RRBSw31vcPkTgmGOVKEcPjblsPmg6WdQ6zBqdMGs26Quvq5HqIOew/s1600/eternal-summers-glasslands.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjddq9-nuXXeazi0dFtAmet1lHPqQt1Tb7F-ThyphenhyphenIhmLZPslROPDmw4Ev7nLA8dk9Sc3qxXYvZOtzdHBObf1DYmYJ3RRBSw31vcPkTgmGOVKEcPjblsPmg6WdQ6zBqdMGs26Quvq5HqIOew/s320/eternal-summers-glasslands.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656662575235550930" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx6GSV9xpa22p7bMAdzbwgHD1kPxguYA7YVXkCxn2z53geuFZCwJX_enLurn8ILtxgODt3mpYbwPsENAp302moVTQHDebr51kpuIwhJcuYKmDzGo3uPDbSYeFTM_aEn919iFVUjvERIpo/s1600/eternal-summers-sepia.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx6GSV9xpa22p7bMAdzbwgHD1kPxguYA7YVXkCxn2z53geuFZCwJX_enLurn8ILtxgODt3mpYbwPsENAp302moVTQHDebr51kpuIwhJcuYKmDzGo3uPDbSYeFTM_aEn919iFVUjvERIpo/s320/eternal-summers-sepia.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656663406192290626" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhB6BblCHlLObOT-cUpq1CxVGItIq-qv4J3B9gRvQU-Jk_CLFwosotW5FBRuYhX5Cb2aIkLBj_4M5XrkDF1R52eZhHc6qrMCst6wB_Nv66sOMlL7WjzvdBbThlllOKRStEJwtUNFXs8aF0/s1600/eternal-summers-drums.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhB6BblCHlLObOT-cUpq1CxVGItIq-qv4J3B9gRvQU-Jk_CLFwosotW5FBRuYhX5Cb2aIkLBj_4M5XrkDF1R52eZhHc6qrMCst6wB_Nv66sOMlL7WjzvdBbThlllOKRStEJwtUNFXs8aF0/s320/eternal-summers-drums.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656663083601651186" border="0" /></a><br /><br />COOOOL!

Our US tour was so fun and of course it was great going out there with our pals the Beets! Below is a short but fun film of us in San Diego, enjoying a thrill together.<br /><br /><iframe width="425" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/26nCyYZTKzc" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br /><br />We are pleased to introduce a new member to the group, Jonathan. We had a great tour with bassist Sam, but due to his many musical roles in many different groups (The Young Sinclairs, Rootstone, Joneski, PLUGGGG, Chopter, and more) our time together has been cut short. Jonathan will be with us for the next dates and is also a key member in The Sad Cobras, Young Sinclairs, and The Missonaries (VA not NYC). If you are at our live shows please welcome him as he is a bassist extraordinaire, a scholar, and a gentleman!<br /><br />We are also pleased to announce that a new 7" Split will be coming out very shortly with our pals The Super Vacations. For more info check this: <a href="http://funnynotfunnyrecords.com/tagged/Eternal_Summers"></a><br /><br />Also we are especially excited about our two upcoming shows with the Raveonettes!

Record presses are finnicky places!<br /><br />Here is a weird bit of footage of MACRoCk 2011, and a brand new song called "Girls in the City," which features Daniel on some moody Lee Ranaldo/dark wave style vocals.

We walked into our practice space and everything was a mess. Daniel's bass drum head was busted open, all his sticks were splintered in two. We practiced and I broke a guitar string and then a tube blew in my amp and it smelled burny. These are the days that have to happen...like a van breaking down on tour or someone stealing your gear. DUES.<br /><br />At the same time so many things are being created! Awesome projects!!! We have three projects right now that will see the light of day this spring... WE ARE EXCITED.<br /><br />We also have a couple new VA dates for Spring:<br /><br />2/25 CHARLOTTESVILLE,VA @ THE TEA BAZAAR<br />3/25 ROANOKE, VA @ KIRK AVENUE<br />4/2 HARRISONBURG, VA@ MACROCK/CLEMENTINE<br /><br />and our tour down to SXSW will probably be in the SE, one confirmed date being<br /><br />3/13 ATLANTA, GA @ 529 w/ DOM<br /><br />and some possible others including HOUSTON! oh snapp!!! let you know soon about these! Until then check dis out:<br /><br />and a link to a video that I SWEAR "Pogo" was not based on....but maybe it should have been:<br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NrBE3VRc8mc"><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NrBE3VRc8mc</a>Eternal Summershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04633693667853627801noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-380814265168830703.post-58047366351346660182011-01-29T12:29:00.000-08:002011-01-29T12:37:10.552-08:00word up 2011Whoah I can't believe January is almost OVER! SHEEEZE. Well so it's been a great year so far. Our friend Aaron DeBruin directed a new video for us for Safe at Home which you can see here and also other places:<br /><br /><iframe title="YouTube video player" class="youtube-player" type="text/html" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/zdSkW-x03z8" frameborder="0" allowFullScreen></iframe><br /><br />We are trying to scrimp and save so our trip to SXSW will be somewhat livable. We heard Lower Dens uses a rice cooker and canned beans to survive and may try that out until we hate both beans and rice forever. Me hate rice? NEVER. STEREOTYPE!<br /><br />In other news we finally got our act together and recorded a 4 song EP that will come out in the Spring. It's called Prisoner EP and it will be a ROCKER!<br /><br />Also were you at our shows in Philly, New York, DC or Harrisonburg VA this past month? Did you notice something different about our live show?<br /><br />LOVE,<br /> nicoleEternal Summershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04633693667853627801noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-380814265168830703.post-46389943296449677122010-12-27T06:09:00.000-08:002010-12-27T06:20:00.875-08:00End of Year thanks!This year has been so rad.

This is in no particular order:<br /><br />FAMILY TREES- "Dream Talkin"<br />SLEEP OVER- "Outer Limits"<br />DUNGEN- "Marken Lag Stilla"<br />COASTING- "Hots for Teacher"<br />HIS CLANCYNESS- "Summer Majestic"<br />PURE ECSTASY- "Easy"<br />READING RAINBOW- "Underground"<br />SECRET COLOURS- "Jellybean"<br />THE YOUNG SINCLAIRS- "You Can Have Her"<br />DUM DUM GIRLS- "Rest of Our Lives"<br />THE RADIO DEPT- "Heaven's on Fire"<br />BEACH FOSSILS- "Desert Sand"<br />AIR WAVES- "Knock Out"Eternal Summershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04633693667853627801noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-380814265168830703.post-91809541761161032562010-11-15T06:43:00.000-08:002010-11-15T07:09:53.315-08:00Homeward BoundCannot believe it's November 15th! yayeeee! Anyway we officially took a couple week vacation after our tour just to regroup. This past tour taught us a lot...we even wrote a list of "lessons learned" because we are HUGE DORKS. We won't share those until we have enough to publish a little book about it. One thing is for sure- do not listen to Simon and Garfunkel's "Homeward Bound" in the height of fall foliage in upstate New York while on tour. Your heart will break!<br /><br />Other news: we are recording a 4 song EP that will be a joint release with our lovely label Kanine records and another label that we totally respect and love. SURPRISES IN STORE! <br /><br />Also: we will be heading up to Philadelphia to work with mastermind Aaron DeBruin this weekend to shoot a video.

You have to see them!!! We are getting so psyched about our friends Reading Rainbow and Woven Bones coming here this weekend. AGAIN if you don't have plans on Sunday from 3pm-.... you should come cook out/hang/see the bands do their thang. SEE YOU THERE!!!Eternal Summershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04633693667853627801noreply@blogger.com2
