You may not have to wait too long. The EC is currently negotiating the
shark-filled waters of signing with one of the several labels that have
approached them in the last month. There have been numerous trans-atlantic
phone calls and emails. A set of album demos is being recorded next week.*
Showcases are being arranged in LA and the UK.
How do I know this, you might be asking...Jason (lead singer) works for me
in the Media Services department of the Charleston County Public Library, so
I've gotten to spend the last two months asking him why he isn't doing his
job and him telling me "shh, I'm on the phone with London." :)
*I'll probably be doing these.
