+-------------------------------[Release Notes]------------------------------+
| |
| In early 1996, the world was seemingly reconciling some of its |
| evolutionary hang-ups. Gary Kasparov defeated Deep Blue in one of the |
| most epic chess matches of all time. Scientists discovered the possible |
| evidence of life on Mars. President Clinton appointed the first female |
| US Secretary of State. And in one cluttered basement in Wilmington, DE, |
| the Spinto Band began to materialize. Spinto, huh? |
| |
| The story actually begins deep in the heart of the Mississippi Delta, |
| where band member Nick Krill was rummaging through the personal effects |
| of his late grandfather, the guitar player Roy Spinto. For years, Roy |
| had penned lyrics on the inside of Cracker Jack boxes, and in one simple |
| juxtaposition of time and fate, Nick found the lyrics that would inspire |
| the creation of the Spinto Band. And they hit the ground running. The |
| energy was undeniable, and it wasn't long before Jon Eaton, Thomas |
| Hughes, Nick Krill, Joe Hobson, Sam Hughes, Jeff Hobson and Albert |
| Birney (who has since left the band to pursue the visual arts) found |
| themselves with a massive musical proliferation at hand. |
| Eight years and seven self-released albums later, the Spinto Band is in |
| the prime vein of musical prowess. Utilizing an indie-pop sensibility |
| that brings to mind the Flaming Lips and Pavement, their songs can send |
| you careening into the heights of lysergic bliss or provide the |
| catchiest vibes to shake your tail feather to. Either way, this |
| six-piece outfit has the goods to deliver us all from the doldrums of |
| banality. |
| |
| Currently teamed up with Nashville producing duo, Robin Eaton and Lij |
| (of Alex the Great recording studios), and preparing a May release |
| through Bar-None Records, the band's sound exudes a finesse that belies |
| their youth (their ages range from 20-25). With rich, textured guitars, |
| and multiple-part vocal harmonies, the Spinto Band's repertoire is a |
| maelstrom of indie perfection. It's quirky, energetic, radiant, and |
| aptly engaging. |
| |
| The Spinto Band has performed with such acts as the Trachtenberg Family |
| Slideshow Players, and Of Montreal. It's an inevitable transgression |
| beyond the words on this page; the Spinto Band excels. |
