Poetry 'n Lotion

About Me

Tampa instrumental-improv extraordinaires Poetry 'N Lotion slips and slides you back in time to a hillbilly porch in the Ozark Mountains and whiplashes you back to a Blade Runner-style seedy dive in the future. You wouldn't normally associate the words fusion or freeform with old-fashioned or rustic, but that's the charm of Poetry N' Lotion, whose songs can include anything from rock to jazz to metal and yet sound like something you'd crank from a Victrola - Julie Garisto
