True Margrit's signature piano-pop is whip smart, expertly crafted, and has more hooks than a pirate ship. On SEAWORTHY, the trio's 4th and most ambitious album to date, True Margrit navigates the waters of interpersonal politics, vanity, history, time-travel, and mortality, and arrives wth a group of songs that is both emotionally raw and musically evolved.True Margrit's sound is fueled by singer\u002F songwriter\u002Fpiano-player Margrit Eichler's husky-sweet alto, her adventuresome piano, and a secret weapon: the muscular, dynamic, turn-on-a-dime rhythm-section of Gary Hobish on bass and Andrew Bacon on drums.SEAWORTHY is fleshed out with touches of guitar, cello, oboe, bassoon, sax, and flute by an array of Bay Area guest stars including Pam Delgado and Jeri Jones (of Blame Sally), Amy Meyers, Kat Downs, Carrie Adler, Ned Howey, and Symon Michael.Although reminiscent of Ben Folds, Fiona Apple, Elvis Costello, and Aimee Mann, True Margrit's sound is all their own--a lyrical admixture of science, history, and personal narrative that explores the tension between what is catchy and what is complex.Based in San Francisco, True Margrit has probably played near you (or will be playing at some point soon) in a solo or band jaunt from NYC to Seattle to Los Angeles or beyond in nightclubs, cafes, theatres, radio & television stations, or sailboats.Go to www.truemargrit.com to find out more about shows, the True Margrit Captain's Log (the blog), recipes, and other True Margrit facts and fiction.Some choice quotes:Margrit is a genius in the vein of Pete Townshend.Joe Cote-San Francisco Spectrum...Eichler is an excellent writer you would like to hear more of.Diedre Johnson-Knoxville Daily Beacon...a bass and keyboard-driven sound that bridges the gap between what you hear on the radio and what sticks in your head.
