Eager (band)

[1] Patrick began forming the new band with Greg Pope in 1995.

To quell rumors of the unannounced but impending PFR breakup, Patrick publicly explained the new band as just "a side project".

[citation needed] The two songwriters recruited drummer Paul Eckberg in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and the three moved to Nashville, Tennessee in the fall of 1996.

The group recorded a self-titled album in early 1997, which Jimmie Lee Sloas produced.

The band continued touring and playing live shows until disbanding in mid-1998.
