THE STORY SO FAR.,
EARL AND DALLAS.formed in Eksjö/Sweden in Mars 2006 as a
collaboration between Jonas &
Marcus, just for the fun of making music. The writing- and
recordingsessions soon resulted in an album: "SONGS FROM THE VILLAGE
MILL" which was released in December -06 on their own label.
For this occasion (the releaseparty were held at hotel Vaxblekaregården in Eksjö) Earl and Dallas performed some of their songs, for the first
time "live". Ted Stenlöv and Victor
Kindgren were asked to join on bass and drums to make the whole
thing a little bit lauder
The two, together with Ulric Utsi-�hlin on pedalsteel soon became permanent members of the band
A highlight during E&D�s Summertour-07, was their performance at the great Ydre Country Festival. The band did several appreciated concerts during -07 and -08. At a show in J�nk�ping, E & D met the great Canadian Countryartist ROMI MAYES. In june -08 E & D invited Romi and the fantastic singer/guitarist ANDREW NEVILLE (Andrew Neville and the poor choices, also from Canada) to their hometown to play live and also
do some recordings. The concerts were filmed by the capable Joacim
Lundqvist.
In June -08 E&D were nominated among 15 other artiststo participate in the annual "Country SM" in
S�len.
After nearly two years of work, E&D finally released their 2:nd album: "WHERE GREAT OAKS GROW"-mars 2009. The album was dedicated to their own home town Eksj�. One of the songs:"Higher Level" is a duet with Romi Mayes. A party were held, this time at the Grand Hotel in Eksj� and nearly 500 persons celebrated with the band.
During -09 and -10 E & D played several venues; MOSEBACK and LIDA COUNTRYFESTIVAL, just to mention two highlights.
In november 2010 E & D relesed an EP, called "A WONDERFUL E.P." featuring KARLA-THERESE KJELLVANDER and ULF NILSSON.
