STONE IRIS CD RELEASE SHOW with RANDOM FALTER, THE SUPPLIERS and THE WHYTES

For the blues, rock and reggae inspired sounds of Edmonton based STONE IRIS, there’s just no replacing that feeling of commiseration and unity that comes from a group of friends gathered around at the stage, soaking up the night together and raising a glass to good times.

It’s exactly that kind of feeling that STONE IRIS taps into on their newly recorded EP, “Illuminations”, which is set for release on Tuesday, May 15, 2012. Like a lost night in a smoky bar, its songs feel easy to slip into and even easier to get lost in, using laid-back but propulsive grooves to create a mood that feels at once nostalgic and promising, familiar enough to get your guard down but restless enough to let you know that the best times are on their way. It builds off their previous releases, 2011 twin-EPs The Boo Box and Serene Machine, the 2010 Silhouettes EP and 2008 debut Ezperanza, by revealing a band that is at once more assured and more expansive than it’s ever been.

“We are all really excited to be releasing the new EP Illuminations. The new songs really represents the direction we are taking with our music and careers, it’s a great addition to our growing catalog. Plus, playing shows in Edmonton is always a great time, our local fans are awesome and supportive. And as we hit the road, it is equally gratifying but in a different way. It is cool to hear and see new fans reaction to fresh material that can only be brought to them by our traveling circus we call Stone Iris.” comments drummer Jeff Burwash.
