About the Artist
Eros and the Eschaton began as the experimental two-piece recording project of Kate Perdoni and Adam Hawkins in 2012, "weaving magic into shoegaze pop" via "an onslaught… proof the outfit would make great double-date partners with Yo La Tengo."

(Fabricoh Magazine) Best New Bands said, "Eros and the Eschaton not only managed to produce one of the most significant new shoegaze records in recent years; they have also captured the most important element of music making: Its heart."Months of touring brought the band to Colorado to begin work on their second full-length within the vibrant arts community of Colorado Springs.
