| Two guys – Joe & Marco. Two instruments - Organ and Drums. HUGE sound - a genre-busting combination deeply rooted in jazz and rock, while clearly indebted to funk, electronica and eastern influences. Constant touring over the past three years created DEEP fan base. In addition to their two man show, these guys serve as the house-band for everyone from hip-hopers (Lyrics Born); Jazz-Rockers (Charlie Hunter, Brad Meldau, Marc Ribot) to show stoppers (Mike Gordon, Ween) Picked by several publications as “the band to watch in 2005. ”
Their ropeadope debut, “best reason to buy the sun”, was produced in LA by Joey Waronker (Beck, R.E.M.) giving the instrumental Duo an all-new partner (the recording studio) and an incredibly refined sound. With 240 shows in 2005 including spots at the Fuji Rock Fest (Japan), Royal Albert Hall (London); Bonnarroo & The Gorge (US) you’ll start hearing the bizz-buzz : “hey, you have the new DUO record?”. You’ve been warned. Are you really reading this? Still? Okay, well, I’m andy and I own ropeadope, started it 6 years ago, and can honestly say that this is one of the most exciting bands I’ve ever signed. Trust me, just stick this little red cd in your device, give it a spin, let me know what you think. Guaranteed not to sound like anything you’ve ever heard beore. |
