| aphasia blasted off in 1998 when guitar player Mark Paul (guitars) sought out a keyboardist and found Pat Quinn. The two immediately connected spiritually - and inspired one another to start writing original tunes. They added bassist-extraordinaire Jon Boone and pocket-man, Larry Bard on drums. Some of aphasia’s songs are best described as acid-jazz, though mostly the music is Latin-influenced fusion. They are reminiscent of tunes played by Lee (Ritenour), Larry (Carlton), Steve (Gadd), Buzz (Feiten),Stanley (Clarke), Miles (Davis), and Jan (Hammer). But with a future-focused attitude that can only be brought to life by long histories of playing in dark, dank and smoke-filled rooms. So, if you like a few major sevenths and some odd time signatures and weird-ass breaks, come on out! Give them a listen and bring an extra pair of socks! | ||||
