Read on.... EFO'S 9TH CD IS SCHEDULED FOR AN OCTOBER 19 RELEASE "This is Me" is the title of the new CD. Fifteen songs in all, we're quite pleased with this, our first studio album in over three years. For the first time, we worked with Grammy-winning producer, Lloyd Maines (Dixie Chicks, James McMurtry), and crafted a sound that will leave you wondering, "Why isn't Folk-Rock on the Elements Chart?" Acoustic sensibilities & soaring harmonies are still in tact, only they're supplemented with windmill electric guitar chords and cowbell whacks-a-plenty. No animals were harmed during the making of this record. EFO is back, and this time.... it's personal! (The title says it all). EFO'S NEW CD "THIS IS ME" AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER NOW Be the first in your carpool, homeroom, pilates group, anger management class, or detention cell to get the new CD! While our ninth CD "This is Me" is still scheduled for an October 19 release, advance orders are being taken now. The first 500 copies ordered will be signed by the band!

Vernon Ave Alexandria, VA 22305 703-549-7500 JELLYFISH BLUES BAND (featuring Eddie, Robbie & Mike) TO PLAY CLARENDON DAY - SATURDAY, OCTOBER 16 Yep, the ole pre-cursor band to EFO is at it again. Give Julie a well-deserved break, and replace her with lead guitar monster and friend, Kevin Gallagher (Floyd the Barber, Sparkplugs) and you've got the Jellyfish Blues Band. Never officially broken up, The Fish simply reconvenes on a "whenevuh dey feelikit" kind of basis. On this particular occasion, the foursome will perform at the annual Clarendon Day celebration in Arlington, VA. JBB performs at 6pm, and right before their set will be Eddie's new group of acoustic rock misfits, Brother Shamus at 5pm (featuring Sir Hartness on the drumset). Busy-bee Eddie will be looking for a shoulder rub at day's end.
