Part of the Rock & Run event The T.S. Eliot Appreciation Society was formed in 2011 by Tom Gerritsen, after busking for several years on the streets of Canada and the United States. After the release of a live-EP, TTSEAS played a string of well-received shows throughout Holland. February 2012 saw the release of a new eponymous EP recorded on a tape recorder at New Ground Studio in Utrecht.
