thesceneaesthetic: Ho! Eric here. I just want to take a moment clarify something to our fans and anyone interested in reading this blog entry. After being home for about a week after our most recent tour with Forever The Sickest Kids and The Ready Set, I began reflecting on something. While we were out on the road we got asked many times about our current full band line-up and what it means for The Scene Aesthetic’s future. — It’s a great question! — I mean, we DID have four extra people up on stage with us at every show. For the record: The Scene Aesthetic is only Andrew de Torres and Eric Bowley. It has been that way for the last six years and it will always be that way. Musically Andrew and I recorded a new album that in every way, shape, and form requires a full-band in order present the songs live in the same way they were recorded. Naturally, we decided to hire some our friends and take them out on tour with us to lend a helping hand. It’s worked out pretty well so far. Every good working machine needs to be oiled properly. The live band line-up is subject to change at any time. Andrew and I have even talked about wanting to bring out a violinist or a cello player sometime, which would be really cool. The point is: there are no limits to how you might see The Scene Aesthetic perform live in the future. Owl City is Adam Young (but he has hired musicians play with him live). It’s a good example of exactly what I’m trying to explain. There just shouldn’t be any confusion about what The Scene Aesthetic is and what we’re trying to do. We will not alienate the fans who have grown used to our acoustic side. We can promise you this. [Photo taken circa 2006 on The Scene Aesthetic’s first full US tour.]
