DeYarmond Edison is the former band of the members of Bon Iver, Megafaun, and Field Report. Guitarist and vocalist Justin Vernon went on to create Bon Iver; three members (Brad Cook: bass, guitar; Phil Cook: keyboards, banjo; Joe Westerlund: Percussion) formed the freak folk group Megafaun, and Christopher Porterfield began composing, eventually establishing Field Report. ==History== The band began as friends from Eau Claire, Wisconsin, evolving from Justin Vernon's early band Mount Vernon and taking its name from Justin Vernon's two middle names.〔(DeYarmond Edison Breakup )〕 The members first met at the H.O.R.D.E. Festival in 1997, bonded at a Wisconsin jazz camp, and played together in various combinations before finally playing as ''DeYarmond Edison'' in 2002.〔Menconi, David. "(Band breakup doubles the show )", ''The News & Observer'', 2008-02-15, p. WUP14.〕 The band's style is a blend of folk and Americana sounds with more modern atmospheric and electronic elements. DeYarmond Edison recorded two albums while in Eau Claire, a self-titled album and ''Silent Signs''.〔(DeYarmond Edison Moves to Raleigh )〕 After a period of success in Eau Claire's music scene the band decided to move to Raleigh, North Carolina to begin a musical career in a new location.〔〔Anderman, Joan. "A new voice, name, sound – and success", ''The Boston Globe'', 2007-11-30, p. D14.〕 The band experienced some success in Raleigh, but eventually broke up because of tensions caused by different musical directions and philosophies and personal reasons.〔 The breakup also occurred subsequent to Vernon falling severely ill with a form of mononucleosis that damages the liver.〔 After the breakup, which was officially announced on the band's MySpace page on September 15, 2006, DeYarmond Edison made a five track unreleased EP available for download. Four of the songs can be downloaded for free on the band's (MySpace page ).〔 Following the dissolution of DeYarmond Edison, Vernon eventually returned to Wisconsin to live in his father's cabin, and over the course of 3 months of isolation, he produced what became the Bon Iver album ''For Emma, Forever Ago''. Three of the remaining members DeYarmond Edison formed Megafaun, eventually releasing their own album ''Bury the Square''. Former member Christopher Porterfield spent the following five years composing material for his solo project, Field Report, which was released in September of 2012. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「DeYarmond Edison」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
