Product Description

The Mercantiles, a Chico, CA based Alt/Country Rock band were founded by singer/songwriter Marc Elwood, and lead vocalist/songwriter George Buck. The 'Mercs' have many influences ranging from Neil Young and Wilco to Ryan Adams and The Mother Hips. For the past 13 plus years, the duo has been writing songs and performing live in and around the Chico area. After three name changes, two frustrating recording attempts, and multiple band member changes, the long time friends have reunited against all odds. With renewed focus, The Mercantiles returned to the studio in the summer of 2011 after recruiting one of Chico's best rock drummers, Jose Lopez and the talented Mathew Clarke on bass. The band then asked good friend, former drummer and Musicians Institute graduate Ryan Gitman, to record and produce their latest effort, 'The Door Is Open'. For the first time in their tumultuous history, members Marc Elwood and George Buck have a producer at the helm that actually cares about their material and believes in it's potential. It's made a world of difference...
