History ''Give In'' (2012–2013) On An On was formed by Scattered Trees members Nate Eiesland, Alissa Ricci and Ryne Estwing in March 2012.

Give In
''Give In'' is the debut album by American dream pop band On An On, released on Roll Call Records and City Slang on 29 January 2013. The album has been described as "haunting yet beautifully bare". Background Writing and recording Nate Eiesland, Alissa Ricci and Ryne Estwing came together in the spring of 2012 to form a new band and record new material after the dissolution of their previous band, Scattered Trees. A three-week-long Scattered Trees recording session had been previously booked, so the trio decided to proceed and record in Toronto with producer Dave Newfeld. The threesome decided to "dismantle" the final songs they had written for Scattered Trees and to write a fresh batch in the studio. Singer Nate Eiesland described producer Newfeld as "a mad genius.

Newfeld encouraged the band to experience recording from the exploration and experimentation side, rather than bein ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Continental Europe
Continental Europe or mainland Europe is the contiguous continent of Europe, excluding its surrounding islands. It can also be referred to ambiguously as the European continent, – which can conversely mean the whole of Europe – and, by some, simply as the Continent. When Eurasia is regarded as a single continent, Europe is treated as a subcontinent, and called as European subcontinent. The old notion of Europe as a cultural term was centred on core Europe (''Kerneuropa''), the continental territory of the historical Carolingian Empire, corresponding to modern France, Italy, German-speaking Europe and the Benelux states (historical Austrasia). This historical core of "Carolingian Europe" was consciously invoked in the 1950s as the historical ethno-cultural basis for the prospective European integration (see also Multi-speed Europe). Usage The most common definition of Mainland Europe excludes these continental islands: the Greek Islands, Cyprus, Malta, Sicily, Sa ...

Cover Version
In popular music, a cover version, cover song, remake, revival, or simply cover, is a new performance or recording by a musician other than the original performer or composer of the song. Originally, it referred to a version of a song released around the same time as the original in order to compete with it. Now, it refers to any subsequent version performed after the original. History The term "cover" goes back decades when cover version originally described a rival version of a tune recorded to compete with the recently released (original) version. Examples of records covered include Paul Williams' 1949 hit tune "The Hucklebuck" and Hank Williams' 1952 song "Jambalaya". Both crossed over to the popular hit parade and had numerous hit versions. Before the mid-20th century, the notion of an original version of a popular tune would have seemed slightly odd – the production of musical entertainment was seen as a live event, even if it was reproduced at home via a cop ...
