PER DIEM

About Me

Many things happen over the years. Some things good. Some bad. We all know this. It's entirely up to us to do the best we can. We only live this life once. At one point or another 'everyone' will encounter that stage when nature stops giving to us individually and begins taking away. Everything we do on a daily basis reflects exactly who we are in life. It's a question of whether we would hold the door. Life has too much to offer to just waste away in a corner and not enjoy the sunshine or rain or snow. With inspirations from music in general, PER DIEM just plays what feels right. Like sitting on your deck at night with your family and gazin' at the moon. A long and continuous process spread out over many years, PER DIEM has come from Phoenix, AZ to find classic rock/country-fried lead guitars with Terry Amos, searing harmonica and vocals from Luke Smith and pounding percussion from Ladies Man Javier Seanz in beautiful Kalispell, MT. So sit back with your Doc and we hope that you enjoy what we have here to offer this musical world of ours we call Earth.

Band Members: Over the many years of it's musical endeavor PER DIEM has had the pleasure to accompany a handful of great musicians. It's almost as if PER DIEM manifests itself in the musicians themselves and was never created by artistic-man in the first place. Each of us have a normal life,... well normal in our own minds I suppose. When ever we can actually get together to make some music, which lately seems to be few and far between meetings we come up with some interesting things musically that we think others will enjoy. Everything that we sing about is just kinda what happens everyday. Terry Amos works at the local Home Depot; Javier Seanz at WalMart, not a super one, so please don't ditch us too quickly (hey we all need jobs huh?); Nate L. Smith at the Grouse Mt. Lodge and me,... well I am currently unemployed at the moment. 'Somehow' the 'economy' started suckin'. Whatever. I guess we're kinda like realists. We have realized that unless we somehow get noticed, (we haven't even done a decent show yet) that we'll be doin' what we're doin' now for the rest of our lives when what we're best at is playin' music for the world. What you hear is each of our attempts to give homage to this idea she/he believes that PER DIEM is attempting to attain through Earths musical humans. Until she happens upon another planet, these are PER DIEMs pilots.
Influences: Influences,... Whatever. Look,... whatever sounds good. All people who have ever and who still are a part of PER DIEM like such a variety of music it's impossible to even begin speaking of influences. We ask that you come to your own conclusions on this one. I think it'll be more fun that way anyhow.
Sounds Like: ...Thunder, rain, clouds, cars on the street, campfires, kids playing,... Well, no ones quite sure if all the above statements actually fit the bill or not, but they, (the sounds) vary greatly from song to song. You'll have to give it a listen and derive yourself what you think PER DIEM sounds like. You may or may not like it though so be prepared.
