Athenaeum тобының тарихы мен жолы

Athenaeum was an alternative pop rock the band home recorded demos in 1994, The Unofficial Demo, and later a self titled eight song EP in 1995, widely known as Green Album. Selling approximately 10,000 copies, Brewster also dissolved his membership with the group and was replaced by Mike Garrigan, the lead singer and songwriter of Collapsis. This new line up played their first show March 31, 2001, at Ziggy's in Winston Salem, North Carolina. The new set included Garrigan's Collapsis anthem, "October". Athenaeum's second major label album, Athenaeum, (originally titled Plurabelle until weeks before its official release), was released September 18, 2001; however, it received little promotion in the wake of the September 11, 2001, attacks. Eventually dropped by Atlantic Records, the band toured independently for an additional three years and released their final record, Hourglass, a collection of rare outtakes & demos, before performing their last show December 28, 2004, at Ziggy's in Winston Salem, North Carolina. Kano and Garrigan subsequently formed the band mg4 with McKinney and Vogt, releasing an EP Gravity Affects Me in mid 2004. Garrigan has since stepped back into his solo career and production work. Brown went on to record and perform with bands/artists such as Ben Lee, Longwave, Skeleton Key, Eszter Balint, and Claire Holley. He has also published three novels, 'In Every Way' (2015), 'Floodmarkers' (2009), and 'Doubles' (2010), and is now an English professor at Clemson University. Brewster went on to form a local Greensboro, cover band, playing for several years before he finally settled in Charlotte, North Carolina, to begin work as a singer songwriter and session musician. In February 2009, Kano released a solo album, Walking on Broadway, produced and engineered by Garrigan. Gavin MacKillop, who also produced Athenaeum's releases on Atlantic Records, did the mixing for the album.
