Thursday, March 22, 2007 - Eastern Conference Champions
Two Tone
Not a big fan of the NHL's Eastern Conference, nevertheless Eastern Conference Champions are a pretty dope band - and they have a good back story... Greg and John sort of went through a Rocky-esque comeback in becoming ECC. They started with the band Laguardia, and were not really given their fair shot. Before they knew it, they had "real" jobs doing landscaping. And then the comeback... they formed ECC, put out their EP "The Southhampton Collection" with Retone Records, and then signed with Suretone Records. I credit it to Josh Ostrander's awesome Billy Corgan (circa earlier Smashing Pumpkins)-like voice.
