Creaky Boards is the name Andrew Hoepfner has given to all of his
music since moving to New York City in 2004. The band structure has
shapeshifted, but the sound is always joyful.
Creaky Boards' sophmore LP, "Brooklyn is Love", a reverb drenched
escapade of vocal harmony, drum booms, clicking castenets, and lavish
arrangements, is almost as weird and enchanting as the city that gave
birth to it. It is their best work to date.
Creaky Boards toured America as a full band in the fall of 2007, lying
on mattresses in the back of a rented cargo van that turned out to not
have any seats. Andrew toured Europe solo in the spring of 2008,
playing creative sparse sets on his glockenspiel and laptop. In early
2009, Creaky Boards returned to Europe in full foursome. The Boards
spend most of their time jamming good in New York City.
Where's the Sunshine, their first LP, was released in 2005. Over the
years, there's also been a slew of other shimmering home recordings
released upon ye olde internet.
