2006 - Mark
DeCerbo & Four
Eyes have been nominated in the Best Pop Album category for the
San Diego Music Awards 2006 for their Zip Records release " Sweet
On The Vine" as they were also nominated for Best Pop Band
in 2004. They have a new release due out in October 2006 on the
Japanese label, Wizzard In Vinyl. This one is titled "Four
Eyes (featuring Mark DeCerbo) The Best Of 1979-1990" and
is a retrospective from the Four Eyes music archives including
never before released studio and live performances of over 20
classic Four Eyes songs. It will also feature a vintage video
of the band performing "I'll Be Your Umbrella" live
on television, a slide show of vintage Four Eyes memorabilia
and a current video of the band in the studio thanking you for
purchasing the album. All great fun. A Four Eyes CD reunion/release
party is being planned by this years end.

| Mark DeCerbo
has been a powerful force in the San Diego music scene since the
early 80's
with his band Four Eyes. He has been described as being part of
that "elite fraternity of popmeisters whose ranks include
Paul McCartney, Cliff Richard, Eric Carmen, Nick Lowe and Glenn
Tilbrook. They don't just write songs, they craft them." (Thomas
K. Arnold, San Diego Magazine). After a stint with MCA Records
Mark recorded his debut solo album, "Baby's Not in the Mood" for
Bizarre/Straight Records in 1990. The album, featuring Mike Kenneally
(Frank Zappa), Pat Mastelotto (XTC, Mister Mister), and Burleigh
Drummond (Ambrosia), was described as a "Don't miss" in
Billboard magazine and won kudos from critics. "You could
hang Christmas bulbs with the hooks in DeCerbo's tunes." (John
D'Agostino, LA Times). more > |

Jack Rabid's Reviews - June 2006
Big Takeover #164
DeCerbo brings back some of the enjoyment of hearing Squeeze
on the major airwaves 25 years ago instead of the usual mindless
radio goo goo. At his
best, as on "Neophyte In Flight," "Artless, Heartless" and "Goin'
Places", the bespectacled singe/songwriter is like a neo-Difford & Tillbrook,
turning out insistent, layered, strummy power-pop that still works
so well. |
