Roanoke, Virginia's Eternal Summers are excited to announce The Drop Beneath, brand new full-length studio album due out on March 4th, 2014 via their longtime label Kanine Records. The record was funded by an extremely successful PledgeMusic campaign, which quickly reached its goal shortly after launching. In addition to facilitating the making of the album, Eternal Summers invited fans to be a part of the creative process and used fan ideas in both naming the record and the album art. The Drop Beneath was produced by Doug Gilliard of Guided by Voices and Nada Surf and recorded, engineered and mixed by Louie Lino (also of Nada Surf) at Resonate Studios in Austin, TX.
Born out of the artist collective the Magic Twig Community in Roanoke Virginia, Singer/Guitarist Nicole Yun and drummer Daniel Cundiff began making music together in the late 2000s. After self-releasing one EP, they were picked up by renowned Brooklyn independent label Kanine Records. Kanine has been an integral part of indie rock's upper echelon, releasing albums from artists like Chairlift, Grizzly Bear, The Blow and Surfer Blood since opening their bedroom doors in 2002. After releasing their debut LP Silver in 2010, Eternal Summers hit the road to support the release. While touring, Yun's guitar was stolen and without it, the duo found their sound lacking a full low end. Jonathan Woods, who had introduced Yun and Cundiff in Roanoke a few years earlier, jumped on board as Eternal Summers' permanent bassist and has been with the band since. After the addition of Woods, they immediately went into the studio to record their sophomore LP Correct Behavior.The Drop Beneath is due out on March 4th, 2014. The band has several northeast dates remaining in 2013 before heading south for the holidays, all confirmed dates listed below.
