Cracker Supreme and the Saltines

About Me

Myspace Layouts - Myspace Editor

A quartet of dudes, Cracker Supreme started out at the New England Conservatory of Music in an effort to occasionally remove (or did they?) their "jazz studies" hats; focusing on making people DANCE to music instead of just LISTENING to it. A lot of music these days seems terribly undanceable; even jazz, which is slighty to extremely strange, considering its history. And out of that music which is commonly danced-to, how much of it excites the eardrum? That question you will have to answer yourself. CSS certainly doesn't know...but it sounds like they're trying to do both. Intellectual at times and downright funky at others, or sometimes both at the same time or sometimes neither, Cracker Supreme and the Saltines aims to please.
