E-Records Offers Contract to one hit wonder band, The Eager To Party Scholars This just in, that label heads over at the fast rising label 'E-Records', who are all currently in the misc of signing new acts to their label through a relentless scout search is now in the misc of signing a band that some of us have heard of, 'The Eager To Party Scholars'... an electronic/indie band that not only showed us an unorthodoxed type of music, but a very interesting story The Eager To Party Scholars are made up of siblings Martha Wittmer & Jacob Schwartz. The siblings grew up as part of the Amish county in Pennsylvania. Meaning they had no use to electricity and most of all music. After sneaking out one night over boredom, they came to the real world, saw the great lights, music and people and spent the next two years plotting an escape from the Amish County of Lancaster. After hearing about AATW Season Two, a show which founded stars featured the duo eventually made the show and became a force to be reckon with before the show was cancelled. After the show the struggling pair began working off the platform of the show exposure and began recording music, as well as losing their old life in the Amish county. The pair released a track entitled 'Moonstruck' in early 2010 independently which surprisingly hit #7 on the Top 20 and eventually got them signed to small label 'Shooting Aces Records' and appearing on The Underground, and then becoming an opener on Michelle Green's The Voice Of Me Tour in 2010. After releasing a free Digital EP, the label eventually closed and The Eager To Party Scholars have gone into obscurity to pick up the pieces. But Eager To Party Scholar fans, the sun might be rising for the duo! The siblings are reportedly in talks to sign a record deal with E-Records as The Eager To Party Scholars were chosen as part of the label's globe quest to find Electronic Music's promising acts for the label. Two years later after the Eager To Party Scholars faded, Why wouldn't E-Records not like to sign them? They are still fresh and are capable of earning plenty of new fans other then their cult following and surprising chart success with their single and their rising impact following on. Could E, shine new light on Martha and Josh? Stay tuned for the latest. If you don't know The Eager To Party Scholars, maybe you remember their top 10 sleeper hit 'Moonstruck'!

The Eager to Party Scholars, a band that has generated a nice buzz in the music business. We first saw them on huge music competition All Around The World as a force to be reckon with during the show. Becoming the top 3 for the weeks that the show lived before ultimately being shut down. After the show, the duo quieted down and it seemed as if there would be no more TETPS but that all changed in 2011. The Underground, which is a website and organization that highlights some of the most talented underground and up and coming acts of the year highlighted the Eager To Party Scholars. They automatically revived this buzz they once had stating that they have been hard at work, and quiet all because of it as well. The ending of January became the duo's big break, when they were approached by Michelle Green's team and they were proposed an opening act spot on the icon's tour and of course, TETPS accepted. Although due to their endeavors the duo had to leave The Underground to pursue other things and this is one of them. The Eager To Party Scholars debut single entitled Moonstruck has finally surfaced on the net.
Moonstruck has a very uber catchy melody that mixes two huge musical influences in Indie and Electronic music. And features synths, keyboards and the electric guitar. The song is about being 'moon struck', which is in other words, crazy. The song encourages anyone who is crazy (in a good way) or 'weird', to flaunt the fact that their weird, not to be stuck as an outsider just because they look different, act different or dress different but to use their "difference" as a secret power in society because in their opinion society makes people who do things entirely different from others, seem like the outsiders, and their not. The song can be looked at as inspiration, true or more negatively, controversial but what we can say is that the song does make year ears fall into heaven listening to the electronic sounds and instruments played by Jacob and Martha themselves. As this song is released, we are eager to see how this song does, because although there are alot of labels looking to pick up the duo, they are taking chances and waiting to see how well the single does before signing any contracts what soever, and luckily got marketing dollars and distribution through 'The Underground' . How far can this this duo go after releasing this great single?
What do you guys think? Sounds most like
Would The Eager To Party Scholar's be a good addition to E? Let us know what you think! Edited by user 21 March 2012 12:51:36(UTC)
