THE BIO
Calvin Yordy is a band fronted by Calvin Yordy, an American musician, artist and animator.
In 2006, Yordy was a solo musician in Brooklyn, NY. He released a lo-fi EP entitled Bedroom Recordings. Inspired by acts like Daniel Johnston, The White Stripes and Bishop Allen, Bedroom Recordings was a personal statement that resonated with purists. All the songs on the EP were recorded in one take with one microphone. Bedroom Recordings is no longer available.
In early 2007, Calvin Yordy moved from Brooklyn to Olathe, KS to focus on writing Lost in the Dirac Sea (PART 1), a 5 song EP. Calvin Yordy recruited regional up-and-comers Stev0 LaCerte (drums) and Wally Dover (bass) to form the band.
Recorded and mixed by Nick Day (The Only Children, The Cavaliers) at Black Lodge Recording in Eudora, KS, Lost in the Dirac Sea (PART 1) is Yordy's most aggressive, rock-driven sentiment to date. The EP was mastered by Doug Van Sloun (Bright Eyes, The Faint, Azure Ray) at Focus Mastering in Omaha, NE.
Most recently, Calvin Yordy recorded and released Lights Fantastic - an 11 song debut album. The record was produced by Dave Percefull (David Cook, Bowling for Soup, Zac Maloy) and mastered by Derek Taylor (Bush, Blue October).
Calvin Yordy plans to tour early 2009.
