Birchmere Shows, Jan 18, 19 & 20, 2019




BRRRRRR, EDHEADS




We hope you are keeping warm & remaining safe from the current Vortex. Our January sure did get off to a warm start -- though Mother Nature nearly spoiled our rescheduled date at the Jefferson Theater in Charlottesville again on January 12, but we pressed on, and we thank all you brave souls who made it out.

For the 16th time, we had our annual 3-nite run at the Birchmere, and it was an absolute joy. Our west-coast pals, Snuffy & Sara delighted Friday and Saturday's crowds, while our fifth man Jake, along with Kevin took us all to Graceland on Sunday. We thank you fine attendees for your continued support of this MLK weekend ritual of ours. Big thanks to Big John and Paul for making the trek once again from Indinois with their gear to capture recordings for everyone else's listening pleasure. On Sunday, our visiting friends from Cancer Can Rock, auctioned off a Guild acoustic guitar (made available by Action Music in Falls Church VA). We also put our big John Hancocks on the body of the Guild. Good funds were raised for a good cause, and we thank our friend Janice for her fine on stage testimony.

May the trifecta of shows tradition continue.... and it will! Mark your calendars for January 17, 18 & 19, 2020.

There are no EFO shows to report for February, but please read on for more EFO-related news...

EDDIE FROM OHIO’S 1992 LIVE! AT THE BIRCHMERE CASSETTE RE-RELEASED!

Our first recording was a cassette - looong out of print, but it’s NOW AVAILABLE FOR DIGITAL DOWNLOAD!

On April 14, 1992, EFO took part in the WAMA Crosstown Jam. Our multi-act showcase was at The Birchmere in Arlandria VA (its legendary 2nd location directly on Mt Vernon Ave, blocks from the current locale). The wonderful house sound engineer, Billy Wolf, honored our request to make a board tape of our set. We couldn't believe the results of his beautiful mix, and decided to make a cassette for sale at our shows - a tape we referred to as "The 6 Pack". We moved a whole bunch of units at 5 bucks each, and it marked the beginning of growing our audience around our original music, and not just our covers. It also marked the beginning of an incredible relationship with Billy, who essentially took us under his wing, mentored us, and worked with us in earnest in the studio (producing 8 albums!) as well as other live projects. BOOya, Billy!

This recording has been out of circulation for some time, but a recent discovery of a fairly clean copy inspired us to make it available again. Hear us in all our infant glory (two acoustic guitars & hand percussion -- as well as Robbie on some killer guirro on track 5).

Go back in time to the days of Robbie's fanny pack, Mike's mullet, Eddie's dashiki, & Julie's midi dress w/combat boots. No pictures, just audio. You'll simply have to "imagine us" while you listen.
