The Eddies

about

The Eddies- 1) Punk band from Dundee Scotland playing in your face Punk and Oi....just as it should be Oi Oi Oi 2) The best rock music, at its heart, has a youthful exuberance, matched with skillful playing and a good sense of melody. It's a winning combination, but it's a rare one. And it's all there in The Eddies. What they offer is a sonic explosion of lush, atmospheric mod inspired melodies. True, there is more than a smidge of post punk, surf and power-pop to be found amidst this trio's music. They wear their influences on their sleeve with pride. But at the core of their songs is a clear affinity to the classic tune-smithing of the likes of Townshend and Weller. Built around brothers Dean (l vox, bass) and Dale (b vox, guitars) Hoth, The Eddies released their first album, “In The Sunshine,” in 2004. The disc showcased the bands original material to good effect, highlighted by tight pop-edged rockers such as “All Alone,” and “Life Could Be So Good.” The album picked up favorable press and airplay in 23 countries, including the U.S., as well as Yugoslavia, England, France, Germany, Scotland, Portugal, Spain and Australia. Crucial to their sound, the recordings marked the beginning of a long relationship with producer Earle Mankey (The Beach Boys, The Cramps, Sparks, Concrete Blonde, 20/20 etc). Several drummers have kept time for The Eddies live show since their inception, with Mankey himself providing drums for the group's most recent studio recordings. The Eddies
