In Case You Haven't Heard: B-Sides and Remixes!!!

About Me


Nobody visit’s a Myspace site to read about a humble person, that’s crap. So let’s make this as pretentious as possible.
My name is E.K. Wimmer, I am a Musician, Art Historian, Artist (photography, painting, collage, sculpture), filmmaker, wit, curator, poet and just so happen to be married to an incredibly hot woman.
What I’ve done…. I had a band named Veduta (1999-2006) that released two L.P.s, two E.P.s was on two compilation albums released by Flexible Records and put out a live album. I was in the band Two Year Touqe (2002-2005) and appeared on their album The Midi West. I’ve recorded albums for numerous musicians and designed many album covers. I made the short films “A Tendentious Man Discovers Theology” “#0002” and “Hemoglobin” I directed the two music videos for Veduta and one for a track called “Simply Call My Name” which is a b-side from my upcoming album. I also worked on the films “Neighborhood Samuri” (cinematographer, actor and music composer) by director Jarrod Burt and “The International Playboy’s First Film: Ghouls Gone Wild” (additional camera man) by director Ted Geoghegan.
What I’m currently doing… In 2006 I co-founded The Iandi Art Movement in Denver, CO. We had The Iandi Spring Salon 2007 on April 20th which featured over 50 works. The Iandi Art Movement was also just interviewed for the June issue of Ph’ Kaki magazine out of Seattle, WA. I am currently working on my first official solo album with my wife and Iandi artist, Maria Rose due out later this year. I just directed and edited the short film “Peel This Onion” which will be available on DVD soon. I am currently working on another short film and my first feature length film.
I want to score films and work with inconceivably awesome people, so feel free to contact me.
"J'adore ton style. Your music it`s wonderful!" - Audrey Tautou (Star of Amelie and The DaVinci Code)
"I just downloaded your EP. It's wonderful! I'm especially loving Distortion Song and Things Have Been Strange. You have a lovely sound my friend. I'm intoxicated." - Erika of Sophe Lux
"... The Elevator is opaque and full of romance, six songs crafted with magnetic drama. An elegant way to bid adieu." - Flexible Records
"Sort of the Cure meets Magnetic Fields with Wimmer's voice reminding me of a smoother Peter Murphy" - Bradley of Swivek
