-----------------------
Goodmorning Valentine's eclectic Americana embraces the upbeat rhythms of Motown
and Æ60s rock & pop, and pays tribute to the world-weary musings of later
decadesÆ songwriters like Costello and Waits. Tremendous and unforgettable
melodies carry spare lyrics against a sophisticated chamber-pop backdrop.
In 2003, songwriter Joey Beltram thought heÆd made Philadelphia his home. But
following a six-month ôtemporaryö return to Ohio (to record Goodmorning
ValentineÆs debut Easter Park), he found he couldnÆt leave the extraordinarily
talented musicians heÆd assembled. Three years later, the band boasts an
exciting live show, a loyal regional fanbase, and a sublime new calling card of
an album, Steady Your Hands. Especially endearing is the participatory
atmosphere of their live shows, wherein friends and a revolving cast of
bandmates clamber up on stage to sing or shake a tambourine. Bass player
Elizabeth Allen adds sweet harmonies and the occasional flute solo, while Matt
Haas (formerly of Six Parts Seven), Jake Trombetta, and Brody Rauschenberger
bring a wide palette of melodic and percussive elements (typewriter clicks,
birdcalls) to their rich tapestry.
Goodmorning Valentine have played venues throughout the Northeast, sharing the
stage with the Black Keys, The Damnwells, Neva Dinova, Magnolia Electric Co.,
Martha Wainwright, Edith Frost, and many others.
