The Glaciers

Jackie Linge and Ian Stynes started the Glaciers three years ago while they were playing with several bands at the time, including the Mendoza Line. Ian ran a studio out of the basement of their home in Queens, and soon enough the couple started working on their own material in the damp mess of instruments and mangled stuffed animals.

 

What started as a simple experiment later turned into a multi-layered and textured sound, as friends came and went and added their instruments and meodies to multiple tracks. The songs began to capture a time and a place of candlelit porches and late night sing-alongs, cluminating onto the magnetized tape. Built on the morals of melodies and retracing of regrets, the collection of songs merge together in an intimate collection of music and compatriots.

 

The music centers around the usual suspects of drums, electric guitars and keyboards. Along with the traditional lineup you will find a rotating collage of new instruments and musical styles. Joing The Glaciers on the pedal steel guitar is Bob Hoffnar (Hem, Mojave 3, Ranier Maria, The Mendoza Line).

 

eskimo kiss will release The Glaciers's debut CD, "The Moonlight Never Misses an Appointment," in summer 2006.
