About Me

EM refers to the music of Dan Ecclestone, played by EM, previously trading as Dan Ecclestone Band.....It's a mix of things, best heard live. But last year we released an album in Japan on the Inpartmaint jazz/funk label, 'Songs Without Words', from which these three numbers are taken.Since that was released we've moved into new areas, incorporating electronics via Jamie's EWI (Electric Wind Instrument - it's a gas) and Dan's vintage mellotron / farfisa 'patches'.Beyond that, nothing really to add, except that we're always on the look out for the best gigs, it's all about the gig.

Ok so this is my first blog, so if it ends up posted into a dark and starry oblivion then, well, I'll try again with revised settings and tweaked preferences. Suffice to say, the album's out - hurrah!...
