Eagle Seagull
"Eagle Seagull' was an American indie rock band from Nebraska that was formed in 2004 by singer/songwriter Eli Mardock.
History
They released their debut album, "Eagle*Seagull", in 2006 and released an EP, called "I Hate EP's" in March 2008.
In 2007 they did a Take-Away Show video session shot by Vincent Moon [1]. In August 2008 Eagle Seagull contributed their track 'I'm Sorry But I'm Beginning To Hate Your Face' to an indie compilation called Indiecater Vol. 2.
Their long delayed second album, "The Year of the How-To Book", was released on March, 29 2010 [2] on PIAS Recordings in Europe. Recorded in 2007/2008, the album's release was delayed two years due to a conflict with their record label at that time. The album was released in North America in the fall of 2010 digitally only. The album was produced by Ryan Hadlock (The Gossip, Blonde Redhead, Stephen Malkmus etc.) and recorded at Bear Creek Studio in Seattle, WA. [3].
They broke up shortly following their spring 2010 European tour. Working under the name Beauty in the Beast, Eli Mardock is recording his debut solo album "Beauty in the Beast". A 2011 release is planned. Former members J.J. Idt and Michael Overfield now play in the Nebraska indie band Conduits.
