EYESTRINGS SIGNED TO PROGROCK RECORDS
31 Jul 2011
Rancho Santa Margarita, CA – 13 September 2004 – Evolving rapidly since 2001, Eyestrings is a four-piece band based outside of Detroit, Michigan, USA. Composer Ryan Parmenter is also the keyboardist and vocalist. Alan Rutter, a longtime friend and schoolmate of Ryan's, plays guitars and provides backup vocals. The Eyestrings rhythm section is composed of two experienced and accomplished musicians: Mathew Kennedy, formerly of the band Discipline (in which he played alongside Ryan's uncle Matthew Parmenter), plays the bass, and Bob Young, formerly of the band Own and a participant in countless musical projects, plays drums and percussion. On top of working on material for their 2nd album and performing regularly in southeastern Michigan, Eyestrings will perform at the 2nd annual Rites of Spring Festival (RoSFest) in April, 2005, in Phoenixville, Pennsylvania. "Eyestrings is pleased to be joining ProgRock Records, who have struck us as a genuine community of musicians and music-lovers. Shawn seems to really enjoy our music, and we are looking forward to a down-to-earth relationship with people who appreciate what we do." said Ryan Parmenter keyboardist/vocalist of Eyestrings. Shawn Gordon, President of ProgRock Records had this to say, “I actually was going after Eyestrings just before their album was officially released but through a strange series of lost emails and messages we managed to keep missing each other for 6 months. Through another odd set of coincidences Ryan and I managed to speak again and revisit the idea of Eyestrings working with us and we all found that it made sense, Ryan is a great guy and is producing some really good and original music, which is very important to me.” Eyestrings is receiving rave reviews around the world for their freshman release and have been playing live to support “Burdened Hands” recently culminating in being invited to play at ROSFest in April 2005. Fans of bands like Spocks Beard will certainly enjoy Eyestrings. “Burdened Hands” is available for immediate order and delivery from http://www.progrockrecords.com/artists/view.php?id=37 Eyestrings Contact Information: Website : http://www.eyestrings.com
