Euphoria
Hello! We're celebrating the release of our EP "Another Night In Normalville", and an upcoming second full length CD at the end of the year! The band has been very busy writing and recording many new songs since our debut CD grin swept the college airwaves and established us as a sought-after performer all over the mid-Atlantic area.
With these newest songs, (including our recent CD release "Another Night In Normalville", we've begun a journey into the band's next chapter which includes loads of exciting new material, further shaping and defining Euphoria's fresh, energetic sound.
If you live in the Mid-Atlantic area, you'll be glad to know that we're firing up our regional tour schedule for '99 (check back for frequent updates). If you live anywhere else in the U.S. ... you'll get a chance to see us very soon, or call your local radio station.
If you live near a good-sized college, you've probably already heard one or two songs from Euphoria. Euphoria has been getting airplay on college and alternative stations all over the country, and we're pleased to note that several of our tunes have made quite a few local Top Ten lists ... we especially want to thank you guys who are calling in and requesting us (we couldn't have done it without you)
Euphoria songs have also been featured on many nationally released compilation CD's: "MU.S.E", "REV IT UP!", "You are now under our control",Oasis Alternative Vol. 3, and Xytar's East coast collection so you might have heard us there, too.

Band/artist history
Shane and Eric have been playing together in bands since the early '90s. The first generation of Euphoria was formed in '93, and the band released its first single "Dixie Pig Barbecue" / "Good Thing" in 1995.
Euphoria performed extensively between 1993 and 1996, and in the summer of 1996, released their debut CD, grin.
The bands exposure grew rapidly, and from the winter of 96 through the summer of 97, songs from this 14-song CD were in regular rotation on over 60 college radio stations all over the eastern United States. Songs from grin were selected for several nationally released compilation CDs in 1996, including "Debris" on Rev It Up! by Local Music Store, and "Insanity" on MU.S.E. by PiTCH magazine. Additionally, the album received rave reviews.
Meanwhile,the band became a sought-after live act, touring the mid-atlantic region, opening for national acts, and performing in regional events, clubs, and showcases including the Philadelphia Music Conference.
In the summer and fall of 1997, the band regrouped to focus purely on originals. This was done retaining the core vocalists, instrumentalists, and songwriters, while adding Jon and Dan to their rhythm section to complete a fully professional lineup and their most cohesive creative unit to date. Later that year, their song "Another Lonely Night" was selected for Kathode Ray Musics CD "You are now under our control," yet another nationally released compilation.
Then in 1998, teamed with the regionally renowned producer Don Zientara (Fugazi, Shudder To Think, Jawbox), Euphoria returned to the studio to begin work on new material. In 1998 Euphoria released their first EP with the new lineup "Another Night In Normalville" which was met with rave reviews and ample airplay as well.
One song from this EP, "Silhouette," has been released on the compilation "Oasis Alternative Vol. 3," and another, "F.Y.98," is planned for a compilation by Xytar later this year.
Euphorias music has been described as "music on the brink of greatness", "pure pop passion" and "excellent college rock, both tough and astral", and draws from a variety of rock and alternative influences. The band merges an energetic guitar-driven sound with tight harmonies, smart song writing, and distinctive vocals. The Washington Area Music Association (WAMA) has dubbed Euphorias music "rock standard with plenty of punch!" and PiTCH magazine has called their debut CD "a full album of strong songs, powerful vocals, and pounding music."
Currently, Euphoria is touring regionally, and their second full length CD is due out at the end of 99.
