Details:
Andreas Kapsalis'' acoustic guitar approach is unorthodox and virtuosic. His eight-finger tapping technique yields fantastic melody lines, powerful rhythms, and moving-bass simultaneously. Kapsalis composes and performs an original hybrid of Americana, Latin, Mediterranean, and Jazz. This inventively unique sound touches on a wide variety of influences making the music of Andreas Kapsalis difficult to categorize.
Percussionists James Gallagher and Darren Garvey create a seismic groove through the use of a trap set, hand drums, bowed cymbals, hand claps and auxiliary percussion. Gallagher and Garvey are long time collaborators and interlock seamlessly with Andreas'' complex harmonic structure. This diverse Chicago trio delivers a dramatic and explosive performance that is a treat both aurally and visually.
