“...a bass and piano-driven sound that bridges the gap between what you hear on the radio and what sticks in your head. The language and delivery have a surreal edge to them.”
Bio / Background
Deceptively True is a compilation of songs from the first two True Margrit releases (Peut-Etre La Fenetre and Sympathetic Magic), PLUS eleven previously unreleased tracks! This CD contains 20 songs (clocking in at just over 74 minutes) and includes a deluxe color 12-page booklet with full lyrics.
...But who or what is True Margrit?
Based in San Francisco and fronted by singer/ songwriter/ piano-player/ bandleader Margrit Eichler, True Margrit has probably played near you (or will be playing at some point sometime soon) in a solo or band jaunt from NYC to Seattle to Los Angeles or beyond in nightclubs, cafes, theatres, radio & television stations, or sailboats.
The band features a piano-driven sound, the kinetic bass and drum duo of Gary Hobish and Andrew Bacon, and Eichler's husky/sweet/ surreal vocals.
↓ more ↓What would you call it? Smart-art-poprock (with a tantalizing hint of danger)? Piano-based rootsy-pop with a suggestion of the cozy, smoke-filled chambers of retro? Part of a brave new phase of post-post-modern-American pop music? Listen up and decide for yourself.
At any rate, the band is best known for its hummable, slightly surreal, uncategorizable tunes, its world-class rhythm section and Eichler's unspeakable love for her keyboard. Why try to explain it? Just sing along.
Some choice quotes:
"Margrit is a genius in the vein of Pete Townshend."
Joe Cote-San Francisco Spectrum
"...Eichler is an excellent writer you would like to hear more of."
Diedre Johnson-Knoxville Daily Beacon
"Margrit's voice is big and bit smoky. Her melodies soar...the hooks float into your head and stay there."
Scott Mobley-Redding Record Searchlight
"True Margrit has to be one of the best keyboardists around town."
David Womack-Haight Ashbury Free Press
"...wild-woman keyboard-player has the heart and soul of a gifted chanteuse."
Michael Cronin--Teenage Kicks
"...lures you into repeated listenings...one little dame who can really belt out a number"
Wayne Bledsoe--Knoxville News-Sentinel
"Oh Margrit; you know they'll tell you anything you want."
Neva Chonin-San Francisco Bay Guardian
