GAMMA GAMMA

About Me

San Diego's Gamma Gamma and started out as a solo recording project for A-Drive (of Alpha Channel / Airport 81 fame), combining the use of analog synthesizers and vintage video games (atari 2600, TI-99, Commodore 64). The live band adds drummer extraordinaire Hexagon Sean, who plays real drums, simmons pads, and additional synths + noises. Full Length release "I Want Your Baud" was picked up by Three Ring Records and released in late 2007. When not in the studio - The Private Arcade - Gamma Gamma plays out live every now and then. The band had a successful tour of northern CA last May and Sept. 2008. Gamma Gamma just finished and released the "Wargames" album - all songs about the classic movie. More news as it comes...
