New York City’s Jack + Eliza are excited to play four shows next week during CMJ 2014. The duo just released their debut EP last month to burgeoning critical acclaim including being named a “Band to Watch” by TIME, a “Best of What’s Next” by Paste, and receiving positive attention from the likes of Noisey, Consequence of Sound, Nylon, New York Times T Magazine, Baeble Music, Pigeons And Planes, The Wild Honey Pie, and many more. Today they premiered the Chloe Pang directed music video for their song “Floodlights” on BrooklynVegan.com. The No Wonders EP was produced by Chris Zane (Passion Pit, The Walkmen) and is available now on 10″ vinyl and digital formats via Yebo Music. Full CMJ schedule and links to watch/listen below.

“… vocals entwined in a sun-dappled embrace akin to the harmonies of John and Michelle Phillips and Mama Cass…” – Noisey
Growing up in NYC as childhood friends, and now musical collaborators, Jack + Eliza have a beyond-their-years sensibility that belies their relatively young age. Eliza first showcased this talent publicly when she became the youngest ever winner of the prestigious John Lennon Songwriting Contest “Song of The Year” award at just 16 in 2011. When she and Jack began writing together the results were serendipitous, each amplifying the strengths and creativity of the other.
