Smoke Ring Days
Smoke Ring Days Smoke Ring Days first formed in 1993, the product of the re-pairing of musicians Rick Eppedio and Cindy Keyser-Posner, who had worked together previously as Barbarian Lovers. Desiring to expand upon the electro-rock sound they had pioneered with the Barbs, and anxious to explore a more guitar-driven and sociopolitically-oriented genre of music, the band put out ’The Healing Time’ in 1994, an album ranging stylistically from alt-country/Americana to folk-rock to modern blues. Venturing out to play live, both as a duo and with the addition of various musicians and friends, the band - which has been compared by critics to acts ranging from Jefferson Airplane to Pretenders to REM - was a regular part of New York City’s Greenwich Village music scene during the mid-to-late 1990s. Since that time, Rick and Cindy – who released three LPs from 1999-2001 - have continued composing and recording, working simultaneously on the melodic musings and abstract instrumental improvisations of Smoke Ring Days and the trippy world beats and jams that comprise SpiceHouse.
