About Me

I edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts!

Blending the styles of hip-hop, jazz, blues, latin, reggae, folk, and straight ahead rock, The Mercury Project succeeds in creating a sound entirely their own. The group achieves an eclectic mix full of rich vocal harmonies, lyrical intelligence, and surprising versatility in both style and instrumentation.

Influences: Our influences are constantly changing every day. The thing about being a band with this many people, is that no-one is bringing the same kind of music to the table. The music we end up making is anything that touches our souls, or makes our brains work...
Sounds Like: We genre mix, so anywhere from Radiohead to Digable Planets. Dave Matthews to Yerba Buena. Sublime to Cherry Poppin’ Daddies. We’re all over the map and slightly schizophrenic. We write songs and whatever genre they end up in is where they end up.
