The dapper gentlemen of Eddie Japan put on a wonderful show last Friday. Their timeless lounge-pop numbers played well against the red-curtained backdrop of Precinct (check out this video of “You Will Find Me Dead In My Comfort Zone” for proof). Of course, their timeless lounge-pop numbers play well just about everywhere.
You will find me tapping my foot along to this Eddie Japan number from Precinct the other night.
Eddie Japan have some pretty great songs. “Pushing Years”, “You Will Find Me Dead In My Comfort Zone” and “The Power Of Negative Thinking” are some of the best pop tunes you’ll hear bouncing off of club walls around the city. They played these songs at TT’s last Friday night and made me very happy. Thanks, guys.
Eddie Japan is probably my favorite band to feature a trumpet.
I don’t mean that as some kind of backhanded compliment. This is a full-on compliment punch. The trumpet is never an afterthought. It never feels tacked on. Eddie Japan have managed to take a decidedly non-rock instrument and weave it into the very texture of their sound. It doesn’t define their sound, but rather compliments it. It’s not an easy thing to do. Eddie Japan do it well. The whole band is aces and plays to the song. Well done, gentlemen.
Eddie Japan brought their horn-tinged moody pop to the Radio stage.
