Your Argument is Sound.....nothing but sound

About Me

Fleeting Trance started in Hayward, Ca as a mostly improvisational project by Manasseh Bernal in 1998. The Band had numerous line-up changes but in 2000 settled into the line-up of Robert Johnson -Drums, James Colley -Bass, Scott Robertson -Guitar, and Manasseh Bernal -Guitar/vocals. Fleeting Trance held Residency @ Storyville in San Francisco from the end of 1999 into the end of 2000. In 2001 the band began touring outside of the bay area. In 2002 they held Residency @ The House Of Shields in San Francisco and extended touring up and down the Northwest of the United States. In 2003 Craig Koozer -Bass & Daren Wilkerson -Drums began to lend a hand to fill in for occasional shows and tours. In 2006 Alex James Muscat -Keys, joined the band to help round out the sound. Manasseh currently resides in Oakland, Ca and the band most frequently plays in the San Francisco bay area & Los Angeles, occasionally making its way into Portland and Seattle. find a list of previous shows, upcoming shows, news, and more info @ www.fleetingtrance.com

Bashes to Ashes, Lust to Dust

There is a distant wind I can feel, body broken, skin wont heal. There is someone sobbing in my ear, her energy's amazing, the source unclear. We've got angels in our space, they fly around and w...
