Band Members: David, predominantly...I probably do occasional work with the exciting, attractive & very dynamic gentlepersons of The Boneless Children Foundation . Probably.Actually, I could probably use a cello player right soon, too...
Influences: Musical influences include Philip Glass, David Byrne, Jack Kerouac, Stephane Grappelli, The "Man of La Mancha" Original Cast Recording, the film soundtrack from "Hair," the entirety of "West Side Story," Psychic TV, Negativland, Love, My Bloody Valentine, the Dead Milkmen, Tom Waits, Jon Brion, Danny Elfman, Angelo Badalamenti, David Lynch, Wim Wenders, superhero comics, Terence McKenna, William S. Burroughs, Lou Reed, the Pixies, Camper Van Beethoven's album "Key Lime Pie," Charles Mingus, "Les Miserables," the film version of "Cabaret"...I don't know if it should actually be said first and foremost, but I am also heavily influenced by the things that happen to me and the stuff that I hear on that daily basis that I find I have trouble approaching & appreciating & wholly understanding. Nyeah nyeah nyeah, influence philosophy. Totally rahd.
Sounds Like: Like a mad scientist cooking up something delicious.In my magical mind, perhaps (David Byrne + Yann Tiersen) + (2 x mystery) + the details of the project + ponies and rainbows + Philip Glass prancing about...
