Plutonics

The Plutonics are a rare gem from the Philadelphia area that can only be described as hauntingly beautiful. From beginning to end, each song is inventive and commands attention as singer/songwriter Jacquelyn Micaletti weaves hypnotic webs of eerie melody over sparse, yet intrinsic guitar accompaniments. Adding ethereal atmospheric parts to the whole is Tom Cole on guitar. Using melody lines as a guide, Cole creates dynamic hooks and arrangements, setting apart great musicianship from mediocrity. This duo is complimented and grounded by the solid rhythm section of Dave Dellacroce on bass and Scott Coble on drums. Dellacroce and Coble create a solid driving union that elevates song structures to higher ground. Lavish two and three part harmonies add to the spectral sound making the band’s sound driving, yet ethereal. The group’s style of songwriting is both haunting and soulful with vocals that are refreshingly original. With influences ranging from one musical genre to the next, The Plutonics are a melting pot of music with an ear for originality. In short, The Plutonics are something truly original in a desolate world of regurgitated pop music.
