Eames Era Cancels Tour After Car Accident

The Eames Era and C-Student Records are sad to announce the cancellation of the band’s upcoming tour following a violent car accident with a National Guard military truck. The accident occurred as the band was about to embark on a tour of the Midwest and Northeast to support the release of their debut album, Double Dutch, which comes out today on C-Student Records. “It was definitely an experience we’ll never forget,” said lead singer Ashlin Phillips, who has several stitches in her face as a result of the trauma. “In hindsight, it could have been much worse, and I just feel lucky that we escaped the accident with relatively minor injuries.” All five band members received varying degrees of injury, the worst being guitarist Ted Joyner’s broken arm, on which he had surgery yesterday afternoon.

Although times have been tough for The Eames Era in 2005, the band has proven resilient in the face of so many difficult challenges. Having survived two hurricanes, a population boom of epic proportions in their hometown, and now this major accident, the band is handling the adversity with grace and determination. To that end, The Eames Era are planning on touring in support of their album as soon as their bruises are healed. Look out for a fresh set of tour dates by the year’s end.
