miles to dayton

Miles to Dayton is a band that wants to get to know you. With a well-crafted mix of folk, rock, classical and funk, this Long Island based ensemble brings an honest message of love, life and laughter to each performance. The m2d recipe is simple: three-part harmony, improvisational violin and cello, and a solid rhythm section that stirs up the creative stew. The family chemistry adds to the onstage fun, while the unique instrumentation truly delivers an eclectic sound portrait, with a comfortable, down home vibe in all of the songs and presentation. Miles to Dayton will leave a lasting impression on your ears, relying on quality musicianship and a melody that will carry you back to the next show.The talented brother-sister duo of Dave and Krista March, with musical journeyman Jonathan Preddice, combine to bring a unique texture of three-part harmony and song. After adding young phenom Rob Caniglia on percussion, and the energetic Leanne Preddice on the electric violin, the ensemble has expanded its horizons two both acoustic and/or full band performance setup.“Miles to Dayton has the ability to blend folk, rock and progressive rock into a distinct sound that, while intricate in its form, seems effortless in the execution of its parts. It is this trademark infusion of acoustic (with Jon on cello and his sister Leanne on violin, both classically trained string instrumentalists) and electric instruments that keeps their music full of contrasts and energy.” - David Dircks, Host of AcousticLongIsland.comWith the successful release of their first album "A long way back" in 2005, the band has found inspiration in sharing their personal story with a growing fan base. The follow up full-length album “Rise”, which was released on June 21, 2007 at the Patchogue Theater for the Performing Arts, features a collection of upbeat tunes with the emergence of a newly bolstered powerhouse five-piece lineup. Currently, Miles to Dayton is busy planning an upcoming East Coast tour to promote the new album.“Miles to Dayton crosses a lot of musical boundaries from folk to rock and appeals to a broad audience that spans several generations. We took a big step in scheduling the “Rise” CD Release Party here, an evening with Miles to Dayton on the main stage. The result was a show that was an artistic and financial success for the group and for PTPA. It was without exaggeration one of the best performances I have seen at the Patchogue Theatre and I am not the only one who said that.” Christopher Capobianco, Member of the Board of Directors Patchogue Theater for the Performing ArtsM2D has maintained a busy performance schedule in the Northeast, with notable performances at legendary venues such as The Stephen Talkhouse, The Patchogue Theater, The Knitting Factory, Acoustic Long Island, Arlene’s Grocery, Eastenders Coffee House, The Canal Room, as well as participating in the Millennium Music Conference, Meany Fest, the Great South Bay Music Festival and the Patchogue Folk Festival.
