"Pristine pop/rock with elegance and wit ... well-crafted, highly emotional pop/rock songs of a variety that few are able to deliver these days." D. Forest - godsofmusic.com

As a writing and producing duo, Daniel Holter and Mike Standal have had their music heard all over television, movies, radio and advertising (HBO, NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, WB, NFL Films, etc.).
Now, performing as Eggshell, they bare their hearts in modern pop arrangements touching on love, heartbreak and matters of the soul.
Their debut CD, "Life Is What You Take It" features many friends...
Phil Madeira (Garth Brooks, Amy Grant, Kenny Loggins, Bob Carlisle, Sixpence None The Richer, Michael W. Smith, Deana Carter, Steven Curtis Chapman, Michael Bolton, Owsley, Vanessa Williams, Travis Tritt, Luther Vandross, and on and on...)
Mark Robertson (Rich Mullins, Legendary Shack Shakers)
Joe Puerta (Ambrosia, Bruce Hornsby, Alan Parsons Project)
Bryan Mir (Willy Porter, Growing Nation)
John Ferraro (Larry Carlton, Barry Manilow, Promise Keepers, David Baerwald)
Chris Mosher (Steven Curtis Chapman, Bon Jovi)
John Calarco (Willy Porter, Greg Koch)
Peter Batchelder (ummm... Irritating Rainbow)
Comparisons and influences are sure to be drawn - from John Mayer and Duncan Sheik, to Seal and Coldplay - because at the heart of every song are unforgettable melodies and radio friendly hooks.
"Writing memorable, emotional songs is our main focus" explains Holter from their studios in Milwaukee, WI, "We want to affect people, to be associated with a time in their lives or a special memory in the making."
