I'd like to invite you to check out
my new band- the Big Wide Open. We are at www.thebigwideopen.com
and also on ReverbNation and Facebook. I also just finished my first
real music video and it is for my song "Days of Steel".
This video was shot in Pittsburgh PA (Steel Town USA) and produced by myself and
ShadowFrame, a Pittsburgh film team. I welcome your comments!
" I've been reveling in the sound and feel of your songs, all very powerful-
instrumentally, vocally, spiritually. There's a cascading life force in each one." Mercedes
Mill, Reverbnation
"We love your tunes, they are all great "the only one","rushing
past" but "rise above" is the best- great words of inspiration!
" Graham/NOMAD 67, myspace
"“Rise Above“ is the first
solo release by John Eggers, a veteran of the DC Indie Rock scene.
On this intensely personal collection of songs, Eggers plays all the instruments
with well-crafted agility and sings in a voice that walks across the tightrope of
power and tenderness.
But it is the haunting, dreamlike-quality of John’s lead vocals blended with
his own backing vocals, which remind one of personal battles with the inner voices
in our own heads. Exploring themes such as love, innocence, alienation and dreams
deferred, this album moves beyond introspection and plants a brilliant flag of defiance
in the hard ground of existence.
Each time you listen to “Rise Above“, you will hear new things and dream
new dreams. This is an exciting, solid effort from a thoughtful and unique musical
voice.
" Ted Onulak, Helium
