Karl Eifrig lives in Chicago, IL where he plays in the bands Lynyrd’s Innards and Mexican Cheerleader when he’s not inventing new ways to be punk. He also collaborates, under the name Eddie P., with J.J. Sonick (Josh Lawrence) in the Mozomedia bands The New Old Men and Kitchen Sink, and also played with that jerk Josh and the mysterious Madame Maenad in the early ’90’s band Pookie.
You can catch new stuff by Karl, solo or in the above bands, often on our weekly Two Song Shot Podcast.
Sample Songs
Jessica Christian from Virginia requested a song titled either “Dress Down Heroes” or “Heroes in Jeans” that would encourage faculty and staff at the school she works at to participate in “dress down” weeks. Staff can contribute $10 and get to dress casual for the week, and the money goes to Relay for Life, a cancer research charity. To craft this epic ballad, Karl enlisted Ryan Murphy on drums, Grant Sutton on bass, Sean Shipley on lead guitar and Josh Lawrence on brass keyboards/lyric tweaking.

Panchitah from LA, California submitted a custom song request for ‘a fun song to make me smile while I’m all borked and stuff. You know, “Dont worry be happy” style. Also, about how forgetful I am’. Karl says: ‘I may have missed the mark a little bit as far as the actual request goes, but I think I acheived a sort of Bobby-McFerrin-sings-Tom-Cruise’s-opinions-on-the-pharmaceutical-industry vibe, and hope this helps the executive producer feel less borked in general.’
