Eclipse is a band that breaks boundaries. Formed out of members of other bands the ensemble features some of the most talented young working musicians in Ohio. Their sound combines elements of rock, funk, latin, hip-hop and jazz to create a unique sound that is sure to get the party started. All of the band members are trained musicians with bachelor degrees in music, from the Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, NKU, and OU respectively. The band performs a mixture of originals and covers from a wide range of artists like Led Zeppelin, George Benson, the Beatles, the Yellowjackets, Dave Mathews Band, Bela Fleck and the Flecktones, Frank Zappa, Parliament Funkadelic, and many others. Band members have performed at numerous venues and festivals including Fat Fish Blue, The Blue Wisp Jazz Club, The Cleveland Bop Stop, The Jazz Kitchen, Columbus Jazz Fest, Tri-C Jazz Fest, Jammin on Main, Cape May Jazz Fest, etc. Brian Batchelor-Glader sought to form a new jam-band that would rehearse regularly and develop a tight sound that would be fun to listen to. The result is Eclipse. The band also features numerous guest artists such as Brad Wagner, Brian "Boss" Hogg, DJ Jahson, DJ Azeem, John Zappa, Austin Vickrey, Alyssa Mehnert, Steve "Jar Jar" Seifried, Paul B-G and many more. The band is in production for a full length album due out later this year. Come check us out at a show near you.
