EOTO On Tour Now

EOTO
EOTO is Jason Hann and Michael Travis' (percussionist and drummer from The String Cheese Incident) improvised live breakbeat, trip-hop, house, and drum n' bass project. Nothing is pre-recorded, nothing is pre-rehearsed, nothing is pre-looped, no sets are pre-planned, no song will ever be repeated, and each night of music is completely unique to the listener. Drawing from the ethos of some of the great DJ's and computer artists of the world, they use cutting edge technology to create truly original and melodic dance music in the moment, with the undeniable power of live drums. The music is all created on the spot, recorded, then mixed and remixed live to create an ever evolving musical experience. Since the project is 100% improvised, every night promises to be a unique dance experience. Hann and Travis play different roles in this band than in SCI. Hann plays the drum kit, percussion and sampler, while Travis is in charge of the tonal elements, playing bass, guitar, and keyboards, and hand percussion and live mixing.

When? I was going to hit up the College Park show but I'd much rather hang out with my Bmore crew than a bunch of college kids.

I'm going to the college park show and I suggest you guys do too. My friend is putting on this event called KNOXFEST and that is what EOTO is playing. But he has other good bands booked to play as well like telepath, among others. So basically you are getting a full show of EOTO and other bands for 15 bucks if you go to college park.

Yeah, the College Park date shouldn't say Santa Fe, it should say KNOXFEST. Other acts include Telepath and Clay Parnell (of Brothers Past and Biodiesel)

Did anyone go to the Portland show on Wednesday? I was going to but I got too drunk at Deschutes before hand. Honestly though when they played here last year at the Goodfoot I almost fell asleep. They've got the rhythm down, but it needs more melody to keep my attention for more than an hour. Would love to see them with Kang or Kyle.

I like both of them (obviously) but I did like Zilla a lil better. I just saw on their Myspace that Kang and Hollingsworth are playing with them in Chicago, Might have to make it down there for that.

Tuesday's show in Eugene was solid. Great when EVERYONE'S gettin' down.

Deschutes is good but used to be a lot better. Ninkasi Brewing, Bend Brewing Co., Lucky Lab -- all producing some fantastic beer.

....it should be an interesting weekend in chicago: i love eoto, entheon shows are always fun, and vibesquad and seeker sound like pretty tight opening acts. and a 'new' venue...besides the whole kang and kyle thing (could you tell i'm not a string cheese fan?). also: bassnectar/dark party the night before, and then ravi shankar(!) the day after...if i can afford it. who's down?!

Yeah I saw the Mojito's show with Kang, I think he was there. I was having to much fun to notice. Lafa Taylor is the shit and EOTO is fucking sick. I saw you a couple times Falcor tried to say high but you looked busy. Next Time.

Anything with Jamie Janover is pretty much going to be ridiculous, wish i could see some EOTO w/Kang, that would be really really super dank fire tastic...

i saw EOTO open for umphrey's once and they did some really cool stuff but the drum beat stays the same the entire show and i don't think the tempo changed a single BPM the entire time either. the first ten minutes were amazing then the yawns set in.

Good lookin out goodyeled. I just got on the livedownloads site and just bought two shows. The portland show is absolutely incredble, especially the second set. The San Francisco show I got cause I heard they played rivertrance, and yes they did. They actually start the second set with it and it is incredible. Whoever loves that song should check it out.

Peace

Once again AZ is missing, i shouldn't be suprised, but i think this would be a great show out here in the desert and i'm not even a SCI fan.

Maybe we shouldn't support the SCI side projects....that way they run out of money sooner and have to reunite.

Chicago was off the chain. Download this show. The energy was ridiculous in that theater. Thought I was at a Cheese show circa 05.
