Banda formada en 1987 por Kevin Griffin, Cary Bonnecaze y Joel Rundell. Éste último se suicidó en 1990 y Bonnecaze marchó después de la salida del álbum "Deluxe", que tuvo un número 1 del bilboard en 1993 ("Good"). La formación actual es con el mismo Griffin, más Tom Drummond, Travis McNabb y James Payne que apoya durante los conciertos.
Se les encasilla en los estilos rockeros post-grunge o alterntivos.
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!

PORCELAIN by BETTER THAN EZRA off the album DELUXE transcription by Scott Josselyn ([email protected])
This song is pretty easy once you get the hang of the rhythm and flourishes. In addition to the flourishes that I've tried to notate, they sometimes use Cadd4 as A passing chord in the G/B-C-F/A passages between the C and F/A chords. I don't hear it in the song but I also like to throw a Fmaj7/A into the F/A vamps sometimes. There is also some bass hammer-on played over the F/A chord soemtimes that I couldn't figure out.
CAPO 1ST FRET !!! (all chord names and definitions are relative to the capo)
INTRO: G/BCF/A (x2)

i wasn't sure which one of you requested porcelain at the end of your killer inside tab, but here is what i got (i saw them in pheonix on tuesday and stood three feet from griffin so i could see what he was playing):
Standard Tuning: it might sound good with open chords, tuned to Eb:
DbBb Hey, you've got a lot of nerve AbGb To show your face 'round here DbBb Hey, you've got a lot of nerve AbGb To dredge up all my fears
AbGb Well I wish I could shake some sense into you AbGb And walk out the door
DbAbGb But your skin is like porcelain DbAbGb Yeah your skin is like porcelain
DbBb Just the other day I felt AbGb I had you by the strings DbBb Just the other day I felt AbGb We could be everything
AbGb But now when I see you, you're somebody else AbGb With somebody's eyes
DbAbGb And your skin is like porcelain DbAbGb Yeah your skin is like porcelain
AbDbGb I don't know what I'm sayin' AbDbGb I don't know if you're there AbDbGb In the words you are fadin' AbDbGbDbAbGb Do you even care_______? DbAbGb oooooooh
AbGb Well I wish I could kill you, savor the sight AbGb Get into my car, drive into the night AbGb Then lie as I scream to the heavens above AbGb That I was the last one you ever loved_____
DbAbGb (skin is like) porcelain DbAbGb Yeah your skin is like porcelain DbAbGb Yeah your skin is like porcelain DbAbGb Yeah your skin is like porcelain AbDbGb Yeah___
