The Olivia Tremor Control Was An Athens Georgia USA Psychedelic Rock Band In The Mid- To Late 1990s Which Along With The Apples In Stereo And Neutral Milk Hotel Was One Of The Three Original Elephant 6 Projects. The Band Was Founded By The Remnants Of The Group Synthetic Flying Machine Jeff Mangum Bill Doss And Will Cullen Hart In 1994 And Disbanded In Early 2000. The Band Reunited In 2009 The Band's Distinct Sound Is A Mixture Of Doss And Hart's Experimental Tendencies. This Chemistry Is Evident In Their Albums Given That Some Tracks Are 2-3 Minute Pop Songs While Others Are Electro-Acoustic Collages Ranging In Length From 2 Seconds To 10 Minutes And Differing In Content From Vibrant Horns To Near Silence. Furthermore The Band Released A Record Of Experimental Electro-Acoustic Music The Late Music Volume One Under The Name The Black Swan Network In 1997. Another Black Swan Network Release A 7" EP On The Happy Happy Birthday To Me Label Appeared In 2000 Though It Did Not Feature Bill Doss. In October 1997 A "collaborative" LP Between The Olivia Tremor Control And The Black Swan Network Was Released Originally As A Tour-Only Item And Later Put Out As A CD By Flydaddy Which Gave The Record The Title The Olivia Tremor Control Vs. The Black Swan Network ' Though The Band Had Never Wanted The Record To Be Named As Such. The Band Was Influenced By The Odd Quality Inherent In Dreams And Asked Their Listeners To Send In Tapes Describing Their Own Examples Of Which Can Be Heard In The Final Track Of Black Foliage And The OTC-BSN Collaborative LP. The Members Of The Olivia Tremor Control Embarked On A Variety Of Different Projects Before And After The Band Broke Up. Eric Harris Released A Record Under The Name Frosted Ambassador And Later Two CD-R Releases Under His Own Name On Cloud Recordings The Label Founded By Fernandes And Hart In The Wake Of OTC's Demise. Pete Erchick Released Two Records Individualized Shirts And Special Fanfare For Anything Under The Name Pipes You See Pipes You Don't. Bill Doss Followed OTC By Putting Out Records As The Sunshine Fix A Name He Had Used Years Before. The Sunshine Fix Has Evolved From A Recording Project To A Formal Working Band. Hart's Post-OTC Project Circulatory System Has Taken A Similar Route. The Self-Titled 2001 LP Continued The Melding Together Of Pop And Experimental Traditions The OTC Had Worked On And Won High Accolades From The Press. While The Follow-Up Is Still In The Works The Band Continues To Play Live Shows In Athens And Occasionally Elsewhere. In 2005 The Olivia Tremor Control Temporarily Reunited Solely For Live Shows At The Behest Of The All Tomorrow's Parties Festival. They Appeared At A UK Version Of The Festival Preceded By Warm-Up Shows In Athens And London That Summer They Again Played Athens At The Orange Twin Conservation Community As Well As Gigs In New York Chicago San Francisco And L.A.
