History


Eliquate was formed in 2009 by frontman Elliot Wright when a friend introduced him to guitarist Jamie Schnetzler.[2] Over the next year, bass guitarist Cosmo Stevens, drummer Dan Wells and keyboard player Tanner Christiansen were added to the group.[2] In 2010, Eliquate released their first album, Arch Rhythm.[2] This was followed by an EP, Who the F*#K is Eliquate?, in 2011. They then released a second album, The Chalkboard's War Against Erasers in 2014.


Eliquate has performed with Murs, Del the Funky Homosapien, Zion-I, RJD2 and Sage Francis.[2][4]

Reactions


Mat Weir, writing on SanatCruz.com, said of A Chalkboard’s War Against Erasers, "One wouldn’t expect a hip-hop/funk/rock album by a bunch of post-college 20-somethings from the Digital Generation to be a mind-teaser about the philosophy of syntax, literature, perseverance and the moments of self-deprecation before the inner Phoenix rises again."[4]
