Eleven Twenty-Nine - Eleven Twenty-Nine

Eleven Twenty-Nine by Eleven Twenty-Nine

Taken from the blues parlance for the length of a one year prison sentence, Eleven Twenty-Nine is the new project of Tom Carter and Marc Orleans.  Their first self-titled album releases a sound that has done hard-time in the blues, from two performers who have constantly pushed the limits of rock guitar.  Tom, a latter day Carter Family member via Texas’ Charalambides, has explored a psychedelic-brand of guitar instrumentals.  Between his band and solo work, he has released some 20 albums, all garnering high praise.  While Marc, a slick-fingered guitar-slinger, has imprinted on legions of fans the sounds of Helix, Juneau and the Sunburned Hand of Man.  Together they deliver an album steeped in the soul and depth of blues while moving forward into an enigmatic free-improv rock. "Carter shows he has no boundaries as he pierces the atmosphere and heads into deep space." -Foxy Digitalis "At the heart of Tom Carter's music lies a fascination with the acoustical possibilities of the guitar - not as a single instrument, a single voice, but as a multitude of voices, all waiting to be discovered through a little expert handiwork." -Fragil.org
