Thanks again everyone for humoring my stream of consciousness type ramblings.Now how about some music...i think I have posted on Eisley before, but there are so many new ears here...i thought I would revisit them for a sec.Although they don't reinvent the wheel, there is still a definite charm to be found in Eisley songs...i present you with Exhibit A:
After a lukewarm Sophomore full-length, Eisley have released a four track EP entitled Fire Kites. The first half of the EP succeeds large in part to track number two, "The Valley"Kicking off with a jagged-yet-steady violin lead, the song thrives under the Dupree sisters calculated harmonies. Vocalist Stacy DuPree's delivery is near flawless [...]
This song, though, this one is like the coming of the dawn. Their vocals and harmony roll over me with rays of warm sunlight, banishing the cold and the night far far from here.
I had to venture to a new area of downtown this morning, in order to meet with my lawyer about a speeding ticket I got (the third this year, egh) and ended up having a terrible morning, driving the wrong way on a one way street and getting lost looking for a bank. :/ Anyways, whilst driving (and crying. ha) I was listening to Eisley. An indie band from Tyler, Texas consisting of four sibl...
So I have looked around on here, looking to see if anyone has written anything on the new Eisley album, _Combinations_, and haven't found anything. I was curious as to whether anyone has heard it and what they think of it.To me, it sounds like they're a little pissed off at someone. The tone of the album is darker than _Room Noises_, and some of the lyrics suggest a less than pleasant relatio...
So in continuation of my ABC's of Rock and Roll (gosh, it's been months), I'm going to post up at least one letter (I have them all done mostly, I just keep getting lazy or busy or both) of the alphabet. We are on E. This was far from an Eeeeasy choice (*chortle*), but some close runners were Erin Mckeown, Earl Greyhound, and Edith Piaf.The "winner" of my exposure? Eisley. Despite pigeonholing ...
Eisley started off their very first acoustic tour in Seattle last night. It was a great show! Some highlights:1. It was my first time seeing the band live and I was pretty blown away by the girls' voices. Stacy Dupree could sing the Meow Mix jingle for two hours and I'm pretty sure I'd still pay $15 to hear it. 2. We got there just in time to grab two of the few rows of seats! Hooray for n...
Eisley are great. They are a band from Texas made of four Dupree siblings and a cousin. I think I heard about them opening for Coldplay and others like Brand New and decided to give them a listen. They have a unique sound and the music is very... pretty. AND they just announced an acoustic tour which begins in Seattle (hooray for me) and I think ends in New York. Some random Eisley trivia:...

How in all my efforts to find good music could I have failed to uncover this song until now? This is EXACTLY what I've been looking for. Where were you on that one, internet?
I have been to Best Buy like 3 times in the past 2 weeks trying to get the new Eisley CD, and the first time they had sold out of their first 7 cds, and said they'd get more when the truck came on thurdsay. So i came back on Friday to see if they had it, but it wasnt out yet so the guy went to go check in the back, but then the power went out so the guy couldnt find it cause it was dark and all...
