ELIOT EIDELMAN
LATEST SINGLE RELEASE
LATEST ALBUM RELEASE
The album features intimate live performances of Eliot accompanying himself on guitar and piano at home in his tiny cabin located in a remote canyon outside of Ojai, CA, backed by colorful arrangements concocted with co-producing collaborator Evan Backer (Wand, Cory Hanson, Itasca). Ranging from solo musings to synthesized symphonic sweeps, Mrs. Paddiwinkle’s Treats catalogs some of Eliot’s recent explorations outside the territory of rock and Americana. A welcome addition to the canon of sans-drum kit song stylings established by artists such as Brian Wilson, Randy Newman, Syd Barrett and the Incredible String Band, with echos further back to early jazz, traditional folk and classical traditions, Mrs. Paddiwinkle’s Treats is an anomalous assortment from a prolific artist burning with creative whimsy and delight.
