They've pretty much disbanded--the last time they performed together was in 2007, and that was a retrospective (which I saw and which was AWESOME). However, sometimes when Tim Eriksen performs, Peter Irvine, who was the other main member, will back him up. They would also have a floating female voice, but when I talk to people (seyeh!) who knew the band Back When, they tell me that that person changed over time.
Peter Irvine goes to all the shape-note sings that Tim goes to--I think he's equally into it?
Tim released an album of voice-alone songs recently, and then even more recently, an instrumental album. (I haven't got either of them, though, and they're miles away from what he was doing when he and Peter were in Cordelia's Dad. I like the roots Americana stuff a whole lot, but I do like the punk stuff too.)
Oh, and what I really meant to say is that Tim still performs live quite a bit. Usually at least once a summer around here--if he does, I'll let you know.
