Bio / Background
"...For all the emo mope-queens, disheveled darlings of dissonance, Debbie Downers and eight minute songs about unrequited puppy love, there’s at least one band out there that uses a strong hook to make a big splash. The band found itself in a good spot recently. After eight months in the studio, This Life Electric has just released their debut album, “Letters to the Muse.” It’s a courageous freshman effort that’s as sweet to the ears as it is timeless and honest. And the harmonies and hooks represent a page ripped out of a Brian Wilson study manual. From the sunny opener “It’s All Right,” the soulful “You Never Said Goodbye” to the Sgt. Pepper’s-esque “Fate,” TLE pays mind to dissecting tonal patterns, plugging harmonies and ultimately finding the right chord at the right time. There aren’t really any surprises or ironic twists. Intense moments build only to be barraged by a strong hook. The music is clever, but easily digestible...

-Insite Magazine (July 2006)
This Life Electric was meant to be. Fate has seemingly brought together five musicians from across America with very different backgrounds to meet in Austin, Texas and become one. The result has been a fresh incarnation of art and soul in the realm of music. With a sound employing timeless combinations of harmonic melodies, cutting rhythms and addictive hooks, they have created music of intelligence and excitement readily accessible to all audiences.
This Life Electric is continually seeking to awaken and delight the senses; with a strong devotion to two and three part vocal harmonies (all effortlessly reproduced live), cascading choruses and turbulent undertones reminiscent of The Beatles, Weezer, David Bowie and Jeff Buckley to name a few. The overall impression is a music dedicated to both melodic form and the artistic experimentation necessary to reach higher musical ground.
In 2005, the Austin Chronicle marked This Life Electric as one of the top five best new bands in Austin. Hailed as a "Can't miss band" by Grammy winning producer/engineer Brad Yost, their "pop n' roll" style has been described as classic, honest, and soul-filled by others in the music industry. With their debut CD, "Letters to the Muse" dropping in June 2006, they are poised to further their reputation as a leading band, making waves both locally and abroad.
This Life Electric is Jim Felkner (lead vocals, guitar) Dan Krause (lead guitar) Simon Hernandez (drums and harmony vocals) Dave Lindeman (bass) and Seth Osborn (keys). Each member brings a variety of musical influences as well as multiple years of live music experience to the group. The result produces unforgettable performances of surprise, contagious energy and professionalism; a combination that enables This Life Electric to capture the enthusiasm of a crowd while leading them to a discovery of the new.
