  Eddie From Ohio - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Eddie From Ohio (or often just EFO) is an American folk band.
Their early repertoire of covers (by such artists as The Byrds and Blues Traveler) was soon augmented by originals from songwriters Schaefer and Clem.
The band developed a distinctive acoustic sound, marrying two acoustic guitars with hand percussion and strong four-part harmonies, and landed themselves a weekly residency at a local bar.

EFO, as they're known to fans, have five albums out since 1992 (at the time of writing; a sixth was released in June of '99) on their own label, Virginia Soul Records.
They followed that with what might be considered their trademark song, the massively popular "The Bridge," a showcase for Eddie's talent in bringing out a huge variety of sounds and rhythms on his percussion kit.

 Eddie from Ohio : Three Rooms - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
Eddie from Ohio's first live album, Portable EFO Show, was recorded in 1998 at the Handle Bar in Greenville, NC, and the Barns of Wolf Trap in Vienna, VA. On Three Rooms, the rooms have gotten bigger.
As per usual, one-man rhythm section Eddie Hartness is given a few minutes of solo stage time to show off his chops, a treat live that loses some of its magic on the recording.
If the venues and music on Three Rooms aren't proof enough that Eddie from Ohio has come a long way, the audience ought to be.

They called them "Eddie" and "Eddie from Ohio." The former became their drummer and the latter supplied the name of the band.

 FAME Review: Eddie from Ohio - Looking Out the Fishbowl
Eddie From Ohio (EFO) is a four-piece Virginia-based folk-rock band.
Without the jarring noise of a drum kit, EFO ends up being more mellow than their closest relatives, the Nields, but they can still rock out on occasion.
It is a welcome relief to see that the staunchly independent EFO have finally hit their stride in the studio.

EFO concerts always include Murphy Wells’ great vocals, Clem and Schaefer’s Odd Couple songwriting pairings, between-song banter and ad libs that would make Abbot and Costello giggle, and an Eddie percussion solo that would make Neil Peart proud.
At the EFO show at Portland’s Mississippi Studios in December, Wells was explaining the story behind her song “Hey Little Man,” a song about her son, who as a baby, twitched in his sleep.

 FAME Review: Eddie From Ohio - Quick
As their press material says, EFO is "too energetic to be labeled just 'folk', and not angry enough to be pegged 'alternative.'" Cleveland's Plain Dealer called EFO "psycho folk", but Quick is more apt to showcase the band's slower material, which is stronger than in the past.
Clearly, one aspect about EFO that hasn't changed is their penchant for silliness, even in the most serious songs.
EFO showcases their vocal harmonizing with all four members participating.

 The Triple Door - EDDIE FROM OHIO
Eddie From Ohio is a freewheeling, playful foursome who whip up an irresistably tuneful brand of folk-rock goosed by infectiously sprung rhythms.
Formed in 1991 in the environs of Washington, D.C./Arlington, Virginia, the band members---Julie Murphy (vocals), Robbie Schaefer (guitar, vocals), Eddie Hartness (percussion, vocals) and Michael Clem (guitar, bass, vocals)---exhibit a positive, simpatico espirit that's kept them intact in a very unstable business.
No wonder that they're long-time festival, concert and club favorites and that their fan base has supported nine CD releases, including the latest, "This Is Me".

This folk-rock quartet from the Washington, D.C./suburban Virginia area was only formed in 1991, but they've quickly become favorites on the folk festival circuit with their jazzy, rootsy blend of folk-rock.
The group's popularity grew with the growth of Triple A (adult album alternative) radio stations in the 1990s, and their crossover appeal prevented them from being labeled purely a folk act.
In its six years of existence, the group has played to festival crowds from New York to Colorado and produced four albums for their own Virginia Soul Records label.
