Original music that is fresh, slightly off center, and never generic! 502-477-8767 Irrational Fear's unique sound blends elements of alternative
rock, electric folk, and the abandon of punk to create a sound that is slightly
off center and never generic! From
the night they met and simultaneously quoted the same Pretenders lyric, Lynn
Elliott and Rebecca Reed knew that they had made a connection and
found common ground ~ Music. Reed was looking for a voice capable of
capturing the vision of her songs. Elliott was seeking a writer capable
of sparking her interest and her selective musical taste. Reed's somewhat
unorthodox writing style became the perfect vehicle for Elliott's remarkable
voice. Lynn Elliott, an accomplished singer/guitarist has been performing as a
vocalist since age 11. It is obvious when seeing the band in person as Elliott
turns on the charm. She entices the audience with her smooth voice,
confidence, and ease. Never
failing to inspire, Rebecca Reed's passion for life rings true through
her music and words. Reed has become quite prolific, writing forthright,
thought provoking songs that never fail to touch the listener. Reed was
recently honored by being voted one of Louisville’s best songwriters in the
2003 LEO Reader’s Choice Awards. To
date, Irrational Fear has 2 recordings, a 3 song EP and a full length
CD, which have both earned them some respectable accolades. Louisville station
WLRS 105.1 featured Irrational Fear on the KY Fried Radio Hour where the
band’s tune "Excuse Me" was voted the third most requested song by
listeners over a six week period. Laney Goodman, Fem Music Guru and
Host/Producer of the nationally syndicated radio program, Women In Music,
wrote the band personally to say "You all rock!" and that she would
be featuring all three cuts from the EP for her new show on her Internet radio
station www.womenonair.com. WFPK 91.9
Radio Louisville also featured all three songs from Irrational Fear's debut
and has recently added Irrational Fear’s new release, Closer to
Daylight, to its play list and the song Benefit of the Doubt has been placed in
regular rotation. Closer to Daylight was
mixed and co-produced by Joe Funderburk, one of Nashville, TN’s foremost
engineers/producers. Irrational Fear is touring regionally in support of their new CD
Closer to Daylight. They recently
performed in Chicago IL., Detroit MI, at Austin, TX’s famed Continental Club,
at Houston TX‘s Rhythm Room in the GoGirls Music showcase, Baton Rouge, and New
Orleans LA. In New Orleans, Irrational
Fear played a set at Snug Harbor backed by The Charmaine Neville Band and
subsequently were asked to sit in on a couple of numbers with Ms. Neville. Irrational Fear returned to Austin in March
where they performed in two shows at 2005’s Invasion of the GoGirls Music
Showcase during SXSW 2005. Irrational Fear is a GoGirls Music Elite member, is a performing
member of Indiegrrl, and has affiliated with Sesac
performing rights organization. Irrational Fear is an active
member of LMIA (Louisville Music Industry Alliance) which advocates the
Louisville original music scene. Irrational Fear performed at the 2003
Mom’s Music Festival in Louisville, Kentucky and the 2003 and 2004 Midwest
Entertainment Industry Conference in Lexington, Kentucky. |
