In the late 1990s Cameron Keiber formed and co-fronted Boston indie noise pop outfit The Beatings. The band released six albums. The Beatings toured the US for years opening for the likes of The National, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Mclusky and other notables. The Beatings released their music on their own label called Midriff Records and garnered a dedicated following and critical praise from the likes of The Village Voice, Mojo, The Washington Post, LA Weekly and others. They disbanded after 20 years together.

After the breakup of The Beatings, Keiber formed and continues to play with his project Eldridge Rodriguez. That band has released four full length albums and a handful of EPs. Eldridge Rodriguez has been praised by outlets such as Stereogum, CoS, Various Small Flames, The Big Takeover and many more fine music/media outlets. Keiber continues to operate Midriff Records with his brother Clayton out of Brooklyn and Boston and has released 36 albums to date including releases from his projects and several other like minded bands. Keiber is currently recording his first solo album with a tentative late 2024 release date. The upcoming Eldridge Rodriguez full length, Atrophy, will be released by Midriff Records on September 15, 2023.
