Everest
Ghost Notes
Label: Vapor Records
Everest the mountain sure is a hard hill to climb. But Everest the band shouldn't be a hard band to enjoy, especially for fans of indie rock. Name an indie rock band that you like, and chances are that one of the guys in Everest has some connection to the group. Russ Pollard has played drums for Sebadoh, the Folk Implosion, and Earlimart, and is married to a Watson Twin. Here he handles main vocal and guitar duties. J. Soda has played with Jenny Lewis. And other Everest members can also be found in Biirdie, John Vanderslice's backing band, and other groups. Ghost Notes was recorded in the same Los Angeles studio that Elliott Smith used to make music in. Everest's music tends towards the tender and sublime; even a song with a name like "Angry Storm" is a piano-based beauty.
