Who am us anyway?Eva Moon hails from Seattle, and her songs hit your ears like a double shot of espresso. Far from your typical singer-songwriter fare, they’re ironic, energetic commentaries on modern life: inbox spam (Cash from Nigeria), beating stress (Run Away with Me), torrid passion (Monsoon), sex changes (Switcheroo) and that cute young dude in tight brown shorts (UPS Guy). Eva’s musical background is equally eclectic. Originally from L.A., she’s new to the pop scene, but spent her childhood playing Eastern European Gypsy music with Balkanarama, a hot party band in Seattle, and other groups on both coasts. She once spent a month on tour in Eastern Europe with a Hungarian band. Eva is equally at home opening for mainstream acts or appearing on a more offbeat bill. Her unique material complements other performers, and her ironic bemusement provides a welcome break from typical singer-songwriter angst. She’s flexible, professional and obsessively on time. Discography:
Mike Gordon has played and recorded on woodwinds with Balkanarama, Guarneri Underground and other West Coast bands. With Eva Moon, though, he’s indulging a longstanding lust to play electric bass and sing backup. Discography: Ferko Saxmanov is classically trained, but "that and a token will get you uptown." He performs with Balkanarama and occasionally with other Seattle Balkan groups. Animals love him, and he wears a really great hat. Discography: Dave Quick has two things in common with many of the great guitarists of the twentieth century; he has four fingers and an opposable thumb on each hand. After more than three decades of experience Dave has developed the uncanny ability to make himself sound better with each beer the audience consumes. Discography: Sue Niemann, ex-ballerina and two-time Washington State baton champion, knows a bit about twirling things. But don't encourage her to play with fire, and do not call her a bun head. She was a multi-instrumentalist with the late Seattle band, The Cociks, and performs with Balkanarama. Discography:
AlumniTym Parsons is the guitarist on our CD, Something Brewing. Just after finishing the CD, he left to run the Pacific Information Centre at the University of the South Pacific on Fiji. We wish him all the best (and envy him a little) in his new life in paradise. Brita Rae Borough played guitar with use in 2004, but has now moved on to other musical projects. We'll miss her excellent chops and beautiful red Gretsch guitar. Good luck, Brita!
