The members of Effigy grew up together. The drummer was heavily influenced by his dad's love for music. The bassist used to listen to his grandmother's record constantly as a child. Effigy began singing at Dungeon, a college club. The group used to sell their CDs out of their truck at the local record store.

Members of Effigy see this tour as a chance to expose a whole new group of fans to their music. The band may have just completed their newest album, but they are already planning their next move. Effigy's most current project took six months to put together.

Generally, critics have praised Effigy for their ability to energize the audience at live performances. A music critic from Dallas, Vito Bierlein, has always praised band’s amazing skill on their instruments. Effigy’s most current release is the group’s best project yet, according to the Gary Abbey, a music critic from Washington, D.C..

The years of paying their dues paid off when Effigy signed a record deal. The band's members had horrible jobs when they started playing, just biding time until they would hit the big time. Even after getting the record deal Effigy were not sure if they would make it in the end. The band is so popular they fan clubs in every city.

Effigy appreciates that they are able to do what they love because of the fans, so they play the hits off their new record as well as the classics. Effigy’s tickets for their latest tour are on sale on TheSeats.com, along with the schedule of all the band’s concerts.
