In an era where alternative rock music has become more about mainstream marketability rather than the underground principles it was founded on, Hamilton, Ontario based band Everything at Once (EAO) comes off as a breath of fresh air. Their self-titled debut album speaks of their grass roots hard work and determination to simply make honest rock music.
EAO’s “do-it-yourself” (DIY) ethic is essentially what has propelled them to where they are now. Headed by Al (vocals) and Carl (guitar & vocals) Redmond, the brothers immigrated to Canada from Ireland in 1989 and formed the band which is rounded out by Tim Lalonde (guitar & vocals), Stu Sisler (bass), along with new drummer Scott McCurdy (drums). From the start the band made a promise to take advantage of every opportunity that came their way and which allowed them to expose their music to a wider audience. The band hit the road playing in underground rock venues and began to vigorously promote their music online to the hard rock/hardcore music community. The community took notice and their music became heavily traded online.
After recording their demo and shopping it to labels, the independent label Linus Entertainment offered them a recording contract. The band signed with Linus in early 2005 and recorded their full-length album with Tom Treumuth in the producer’s chair. Their debut CD was released in Canada on August 2nd, 2005. For the band, their self-titled release is a reaction to a world gone blind and a life turned upside down.
With their high-energy live show & killer songs, Everything at Once will be taking their show on the road in early 2006. Their self-titled debut album will also be released in the US in early 2006 through KOCH Distribution.
