BIO

ELM TREASON is the musical union of Andrew Roman and Robert Steel.

Some say that ELM TREASON's brand ought to be "new music with a vintage vibe." People like labels, but Elm Treason doesn't. Really, Elm Treason’s music is just .... well, theirs.

Okay, they're rock and roll .... but even that is far too simple to adequately sum them up.  They're acoustic. They're soulful. They're heavy. They’re smooth.

Complex, manic, foreboding and smooth are just a small sample of the adjectives that one could muster to describe the sound resonating from this Staten Island, New York duo. They’ve been together since the Fall of 2010, originally intending to be an acoustic rock duo. However, in a relatively short period of time, they evolved from a team of mad musical basement noisemakers into a full-grown “lets-do-it-all-ourselves” musical dynamo.
They have gutted the new classic rock archetype with a collection of songs that blend together influences stretching the collective soundscape past the horizon and around the moon (or the closest mountain range). Their sound is kind of alternative, sort of. Some songs are a bit progressive. Some are funky are fluffy. Some are based in roots music, some are garnished in paisley. Some rock, some glide. Some float, others roll. It's maybe a little indie-ish and overall strangely familiar. 
Truly, their vibe is quite eclectic – from bluesy rock to trippy grooves, from acoustic pop to pseudo-Brit rock; from 6/8 to 4/4; from neo-progressive to pentatonic scale heaven. It really is quite difficult to classify their music as sounding like “this group” or having the same feel as “that group.” Indeed, they have a lot of different “feels.”
This dynamic duo write, record and produce it all themselves. They are all about hooks, melody, harmonies and musicianship.
“Who we sound like really depends on the song,” Andy explains.
“Eclectic, overall…but each song is very distinct and definite,” says Bob.
A long road of music, in various forms of incarnation, led them to the end game of ELM TREASON.
Bob's previous bands included "Ambience" (playing underage in Staten Island clubs with bands almost twice their age). His second and Third bands were "Steel" and "Black Teacup Yorkie". One was a heavy metal band, the other was an acoustic based East Village coffee house group (with the same members). Steel's self-titled EP received a four star review in The Aquarian. His Fourth Band was called "Isko Suno" (a multicultural blend of rock, hip hop and trip hop). A review in the Village Voice called their music "Ethnic Groove".

As a pianist for the Brooklyn College Jazz Big Band and Small Ensemble, Bob performed at Amherst Unitarian Church in Amherst MA; at the Abrons Arts Center in Manhattan; and at the University of Connecticut in Storrs CT, for which he received a write up in a Hartford Newspaper.

Bob's credentials include: BA Music: College of Staten Island 1992; MA Music Education : Brooklyn College;  Recipient of 2011 Kadish-Millet Award for Excellence in Songwriting.

Andy has played music over the years in a few groups/projects that never amounted to much, save for some critical experience and a bucket full of memories. His partnership with his buddy, Gil, in Washington was short-lived, albeit a load of fun. His collaboration with keyboardist Matt Werning was equally short, but inspirational. Perhaps the best collaboration was with his long-time friend, Rich, in a little project called Red Ant Picnic featuring such tracks as "Sister Alice," "End Game #3" and "Innocence Then."

Mostly, however, over the course of his musical life, he had been an open-mic night, open guitar-case in the park, subway platform kind of guy.

He has made his living in audio and video production. He was a minor TV celebrity for a time in Fort Wayne, Indiana  as part of the "Shane and Andy On The Road" series on Fox. He also created and hosted the wildly popular Major League Baseball radio program "Diamond Stuff" in Northwest Ohio. He is also a professional voice over actor and has won five Addy Awards for radio commercial writing/production.

Elm Treason's debut album, "Days of Reaction" is what Elm Bob calls the "culmination of our influences, learning experiences, rites of passage and stylistic mannerisms in one big amazing collaboration. All of our past efforts led up to this moment."

The Beatles Young and Restless

In short, we plan to make a documentary film over the next year, following the early stages of The Beatles career spent in Hamburg, 1960-1962, these were the formative years of The Beatles, and are poorly documented so far.

As well as The Beatles, our Documentary will also be following various other bands, all part of the Hamburg scene revolving around The Beatles in the early 60s (some say this was the birth place of European Rock n Roll).

The film will also portray the true work ethic of musicians, and how The Beatles really did put in the time and effort in Hamburg to achieve their lasting world fame. As well as being rich in content, it is also a top priority of ours to produce a film which is accurate, one which represents the Rock n Roll scene of Hamburg with faithful authenticity.

For the past 6 months we have been recruiting Beatles experts from across the globe to assist us in this, and of course such a project could not come about without support from the vast Beatles community out there.

Join the online conversation by becoming part of our Facebook group 

https://www.facebook.com/groups/BeatlesHamburgF...

We’ve been gathering stories and experiences from Beatles fans/experts, compiling this archive of Hamburg Beatles info and, slowly but surely, separating fact from fiction. The response we’ve had has been extremely positive and exciting so far, but now we’re planning on taking this project to the next level, and we need your help.

The Beatles Rarity

The Beatles Rarity

 

What did George Martin mean by a shorter 'White Album' or where did the Beatles' 'Drop T' logo come from or who played the harmonica on "Apple Scruffs?" 

 

These are the kinds of questions I tackle each week on #askNat,. 

 

Check out some past #askNats at this link:

http://www.thebeatlesrarity.com/category/asknat/

What about YOUR Beatles question? That is ANYthing you have always wondered about the greatest rock band ever.
I invite you to ask me - I'm Nat. #Ask Nat whatever Beatles-related question you want and if it's a question I haven't gotten to yet, there's a good chance 

I'll put it up on TheBeatlesRarity.com. After I give you my 2 cents others will chime in and add to the discussion. From the site, click the Request link in the dark green menu at the top of the page and mark it as an #askNat - you'll see how once you're there and just type me your question. That's about it. It's historical, educational, easy and fun.

The Beatles Rarity - For those of us who like our Beatles rare….

Good Ol' Freda

It's our turn FAB4RADIO LISTENERS  donate!
This is the story we have been waiting for.
Give and make a difference - we have done it once we can do
it again!

To Our Amazing Backers: We are very proud to announce that Good Ol' Freda has been selected as a headliner film at the prestigious South by Southwest Film Festival in Austin, TX! The world premiere is scheduled for March 9th and Freda will be coming from Liverpool to be there in person. Needless to say, Freda was very surprised to see her name alongside Jim Carrey’s and Steve Carell’s in yesterday’s early announcement here! We wish that each and every one of you could be there with us, as your support has gotten us this far. As we face this final stretch to the finish line, we’re now facing over $75,000 in post-production costs such as licensing never-before-seen photos and footage of The Beatles, some very special music(!), and a myriad of technical needs such as sound and color correction that must be done to finish the film. Contributions of all amounts help us chip away at these costs and help ensure we can have a finished film ready for its world premiere. If you’re interested in making a fully tax-deductible donation to Good Ol' Freda via The Southern Documentary Fund, go here: Donate Here -> -> -> -> http://southerndocumentaryfund.org/projects/good-ol-freda/ Be sure to check out our website and Facebook page for frequent updates over the coming months, and join our newsletter. The DVDs should be available around summer 2013 and we will ship them to you when they are in hand! Here's a link to an article that appeared today in The Beatles Examiner giving more details about the film.  Many thanks to all of you for your support and donations, to all our friends and family for putting up with our crazy work schedules for the past 18 months, to The Beatles for the joy and the music......but most of all to Freda Kelly for being there for all Beatles fans and for trusting us to tell her story.
