Last year I decided I'd had enough of this. It wasnt healthy returning to bad things by singing about them constantly. So I Stopped. At first it was a relief, but then slowly I began to miss it. So here I am now bringing it all up back up. I just finshed a new EP called 'Your Bad News Is You're Bad News', one that im very proud of because I thought that I had lost the ability to lay myself open in mp3. Enjoy and let me know what you think. Soon it will be up here to donwload when I've finished the artwork but for now enjoy it in its streaminess.
Merry Eiffel Tower High began when I was 18, I took the name from my favourite Husker Du song Eiffel Tower High. At the time I was in a few bands but I wasn't really contributing anything and I had all these things in my head I needed to get out. It was the first time I'd picked up a guitar properly let alone tried to write music. Now I'm not egotistical, I know I'm not flowing with talent, but I like to think that simplicity and honesty are my strong points, and also a catchy melody helps too. All I have is a beat up guitar and a sixty year old organ, I wish I had all the instruments I hear in my head to use but I don't so I stick to what I have. Hopefully I'll be here for a while, singing and writing songs about friends, girls, drink, love and lost love.
