Imagine Primus doing a pop-funk project...there yet? Now you have Eggshell Egoz. Their album, Funky Poetz is that slap happy album of pop-perfected funk with a tinge of obscurity riding the fringes, all soothed with the vocal performance and comfort of Jack Johnson. Eggshell's a blend of rock, funk and pop combined with colorful, literature-style songwriting. Billed with acts such as Liz Phair, Quincy Jones, Raining Jane, and Gavin Rossdale (Institute) their positive, high energy live shows have made them a staple at theaters, festivals, bars and universities. With strong but vulnerable vocals, critics have defined Eggshell's unique sound as-
"Down home grooves that get you bobbin' and smiling while enveloping you with a feel good blanket" (Catsask Music and
Entertainment)
"It is fun stuff, the kind of partying music you want blowing out of your speakers on a summer afternoon", Howie Mitchell,
Fear of a Rap Planet
"Fun filled; cruise to the beach type of debut, slather on some lotion"
(Ronald Gross, blogger news)
"A group such as Eggshell Egoz could only have originated from California. This jumpy, infectiously giddy band marries the
white funk of the Red Hot Chili Peppers with the singalong pop hooks of the Barenaked Ladies and the sun-baked lethargy
of Sublime.", Carlos Redondo, World Where you live
2009 brings energy, fun, placements, and a brand new album. Eggshell's third album, Naked, is set to release in Fall 09', their single "Take To The Sky" leads the way. 09' also brings the double placements of Taking My Time and Funky Poetz in the new indie feature film, Off The Ledge (
www.Offtheledgemovie.com), out in theaters soon. A sex, drugs, and rock n' roll film in the vein of pulp fiction and garden state. It's slated for release in the fall and the buzz is bouncing off the walls.
Eggshell Egoz can be found on any of the major networks including Twitter, Facebook, Reverbnation, Myspace, CD Baby and iTunes.
