THE HISTORY OF GUNPOWDER
Ask any sweaty, beaming fan as they exit a History of Gunpowder show and you will hear the same thing: “unforgettable”. The History is gritty, high energy and, quite honestly, chaotic. Somehow they walk the haywire while executing lush, expansive arrangements. Growling blues vocals over danceable funk rhythms compel audiences across North America and Europe to boogie down and surf the crowd. A genuine 'Freakout Orchestra', their powerhouse horn section, violin, and pedal steel make every show a unique, electric sonic experience.

NUCLEAR DISCO
We live to create. Creation is our journey, our way of understanding the world and ourselves. We are not the source, but merely the translators of our ideas, and can only watch in awe as their relationships to our world change with every experience we inherit. When we get together to celebrate music, we celebrate life itself: the bewildering condition in which we find ourselves, miraculous in each and every moment. We long for the next exhilarating journey to the unknowable ends of our creative process.
We cannot think of anything else.

VOX REA
Vox Rea supplies a soundtrack to the confusion and euphoria of coming of age in a postmodern world. With a sound as impulsive and fluctuating as the life of the 20-somethings they are, their special brand of noir pop blends strings arrangements and harmonies into the dreamy collection of songs on their self-titled debut.
