Flux Manifesto

About Me

Flux Manifesto is a Progressive Rock band founded summer of 2007 by brothers Donito and Julian. Shortly thereafter, their cousin Bobby moved to Arizona and joined the band. They later found Law hiding under multiple rocks at ASU clutching Frankie in his palms. Their crude symbiotic relationship seemed cute and strange, and both were asked to join the band.
Currently Donito and Bobby attend MCC as Jazz Performance Majors, Law attends ASU as a Jazz Performance Major, and Julian is in the varsity Jazz band at his highschool and will be seeking a music performance degree when he graduates.
Flux Manifesto works hard to sound symphonic incorporating meter changes, key changes, improvisation, counterpoint, polyphonic melodies, and syncopated rhythms into their music. They take much influence and are greatly inspired by the worlds of Prog, Jazz, Fusion, Funk, Latin, Classical, and R&B. Their main goal is to have longevity and they want nothing more than for you to join them in their journey.
FM is currently recording and actively seeking a keyboardist; if you are interested feel free to contact them via myspace.
