"Infectious emo rock/pop.

Infectious emo pop / rock."A foundation of common tastes revealed a childlike unbridled musical adventure" was the first thing thast came to mind when Anthony and Ian were asked to comment about the genesis of the musical journey. Comparing notes about the latest and best music equipment at a San Francisco party unfolded in creating a collective musical bond that continues to this day. Transatlantic musical tastes and influences compelled Anthony and Ian to form everythingnothing and see what they could achieve. Countless evenings of musical experimentation in late 1999 resulted in the sessions that formed the beginning of Everythingnothing's first release "Clear". Clear was a self produced recording featuring Anthony and Ian sharing the instrument duties to showcase Anthony's strong and compelling vocal talents.Within a couple of weeks everythingnothing's track "Bleed" rose to the top 10 on various web based music sites such as: MP3.com, Riffage.com, and Garageband.com. They were later featured on several music site's annual compilation CDs to showcase emerging artists. They instantly found them selves in conversations with several record labels, but without a live band. It was then very clear that it was time to start a complete band. They brought in well respected local musicians and played around the Bay Area, built a solid fan base and hit the spring and summer festival circuits in 2000 and 2001.From meeting musicians and the battles they were up against with bar owners and talent bookers in the SF Bay Area, everythingnothing and a few other local San Francisco Bay Area bands saw the opportunity to create and be part of an organization enrolling bands to support each other. This sense of camaraderie under the umbrella of "Bandsummit" allowed for pro level unsigned bands to perform in high profile local gigs that many only dream about.From the success of Bandsummit; everythingnothing as well as many others, were exposed to a large network of musicians. They met an "up and coming" San Francisco Bay Area producer, Matt Boudreau of Broken Radio Studios who was making some very impressive recordings for other local musicians. Matt was eventually invited to mix the everythingnothing produced sophomore recording "Choices".They finally went back into the studio off and on in the summer 2002 through the summer of 2003. The new record "Choices" was mastered by Michael Romanowski at Paul Stubblebine Mastering and DVD. "Choices" was released in January 2004 and it saw a number of songs picked up by various US radio and international radio stations in Canada, China, Germany and UK, Mac Addict, had everythingnothing as their featured artist in July 2004 resulting in significant CD sales.The track "Spin" was featured on the J Miller Tobin directed movie "How You Look To Me (2005)" starring Frank Langella and Laura Allen. Other stand out tracks include "Bleed" "Nobody's Home" and "Another Complaint".From Everythingnothing's exposure, they met producer Jeremy Stead. A couple of remixes later, in 2005 Jeremy was invited to engineer, mix, and produce their latest release " Illusions and Fools". Working with Jeremy produced a more lush and more intricate sounding than "Choices". Again mastered by Michael Romanowski at Paul Stubblebine DVD and Mastering, everythingnothing's third release hit the airwaves in early 2006 and is now the foundation of everythingnothing's live set.Compared stylistically to a diverse set of bands such as: Neil Finn, Travis, Keane, Death Cab for Cutie, Snow Patrol, and Live, amongst others, everythingnothing's sound is radio friendly and has attracted interest from all over the world.Everythingnothing would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to their world!CD's For Sale
