About Me


This diverse, multi layered collaboration began in 2004, as the members were taking on music and science studies in Boston, MA. Vary Lumar’s “Why? Generation” rock mood music has been continuously growing and evolving into an experience that shines with an eclectic aura.
Paul De Pasquale/Rob Laff/Rob Fusco/Ben Case refer to the music as pre-apocalyptic psychedelic rock. Their debut album “Waiting Room” came to be a redefinition of Vary Lumar’s music. The recordings were constructed from pragmatic visions, myriad possibilities, and a sense of raw emotion.
The band’s dynamic live show paints a sonic mind piece that elicits feelings of energy, gloom, aggression, & euphoria, while ultimately bringing listeners to a comfortable place.
The guys mostly spend their time creating new material in their home studio. When the quartet isn’t playing music, they like to seek out different forms of art and creativity.
With the early 2008 release of “Waiting Room”, the band shows no sign of slowing down, as they will spend the rest of the year working on new projects and traveling a string of live dates.
