Resonant Vibes is super excited to give our readers an exclusive audio interview with Michael Travis, half of the incredible powerhouse duo EOTO. (Click the play button below to have a listen.)

EOTO was first mentioned to the Resonant Vibes community back in my “Livetronica” blog post. The band is comprised of two members from the highly acclaimed jam band String Cheese Incident (SCI), which took a hiatus back in 2007. Jason Hann is the drummer who handles most of the rhythmic elements of the music and Michael Travis takes care of all the melodic and tonal instrumentation as well as some percussion aspects. EOTO started when Jason Hann joined SCI back in 2005. As both Travis and Hann recall, they started jamming whenever they had breaks from SCI practice with no plans of creating another band. When they started experimenting with looping via Abelton Live, the EOTO concept was born. Some of the duo’s biggest influences are DJs and they strive to create pure electronic dance music with the motto- 100% improvised, nothing pre-recorded and nothing pre-planned! You will never see the band perform the exact same thing twice.

Since the SCI hiatus, EOTO has been performing relentlessly all year round, gaining a very strong fan base in the process. The guys just started a month long tour which runs all over the united states with out a single day break. I highly recommend you check them out if they come to your area. I had the pleasure of seeing them perform at the Summer Camp Music Festival and it was absolutely stunning!

Check out the EOTO profile page in the Resonant Vibes network to learn more about the band and to download a full live show. Resonant Vibes will have a lot more coverage and exclusive content from EOTO coming soon.

Enjoy this fantastic exclusive interview!
