The Ernies
The Ernies were a popular American alternative rock band from Richmond, Virginia. They released two albums on an independent label before signing to Mojo Records and releasing their third album entitled ''Meson Ray''.
==History==
The Ernies were formed in 1994 by four students of Virginia Commonwealth University: Will Hummel, Tom Martin, Matt Goves, and Hayes Smith. Hayes majored in music education, learning the saxophone and the bassoon, and Matt majored in music performance, focusing on percussion. Will studied English, and was especially influenced by the Modernists of the early 20th century.
The Ernies released their self-titled debut album on October 1, 1995. This album featured a three-piece horn section consisting of Steve Bider on alto saxophone, Stefan Demetriadis on trombone, and Hayes Smith on the baritone saxophone. In 1995, bassist Mike Hughes joined the band.
On May 12, 1997, The Ernies released their second album, ''Dropping Science''. This album diverged from the pure ska style present on their previous album. The first track, "Jive", addresses the style change with lyrics like "We're not ska-core or reggae, jazz or funk, we're not hip-hop or rock or pop" and "to pacify those of you who need a label, call it what you want, we know you'll kick it if you're able". Without Steve Bider in the band, the horn section on ''Dropping Science'' consisted only of Stefan Demetriadis on trombone, and Hayes Smith on the baritone saxophone.
