There are two bands called Earwig, each with a totally different sound. One band is from England, the other from America.
The European band to go by this name was a small English trio consisting of Kristy Yates on vocals and bass guitar, Sergei Tardo on guitars and piano, and Dimitri Voulis. La-Di-Da Productions released their first 12 inches “Hardley” and “Might” in 1991. Their CD EP “Under My Skin I Am Laughing” perfectly encapsulates the early nineties shoegaze sound of England and was distributed in the United States in 1994.
The American band also formed in 1991. They self-recorded and released a cassette, a 7” single (Dinosaur Song/Wounded Knee) and finally a full album in 1994 all on their own “micro-indie” record label LFM Records. Working at a steady pace over the last several years, the band has been in no hurry to sell themselves short for any mythical big break with a major label. Putting out a series of critically acclaimed but hard to find albums, the band has gathered a small, but ferociously loyal, fan base. A new album is expected (on LFM Records) in late 2008.
***
“Earwig is a high energy, stripped down, underground-rock, three piece with emotionally intelligent lyrics. They deftly straddle the line between reckless rock and roll mayhem and deliberate organized song crafting. The Who and Nirvana both come to mind.”
