JAZZ: Jazz Fusion, ROCK: Extended Jams
Details:
War Pigeon is much more than just the sum of its parts. Like a starving caged animal breaking free from its restraints, War Pigeon violates its audience with state of the art funk-infused, rock dubbing, blues dripping bliss. Guided by soul challenging, emotionally charged song-writing and improvisational forward thinking musical passages, War Pigeon manages to span the melodies and sonic integrity of all forms of music.
Funkdireggaefiedsouljazzrockfusion is the short way to describe a band that hones its prey on deep heavy hitting grooves, while pecking and plucking at the cerebral walls with melodic dissonance, and hip-hop like syncopation. You can dance to the make or you can sit back and take notes. Either way, at the end of the night you''re not going to know what hit you.
War Pigeon came together in the spring of 2003 When New York raised guitarist and song writer Ben Bloom, and Seattle based drummer and bass player Cody Rahn were looking for other musicians to form a group to perform material from a recent studio session. After rehearsals and auditions, one man made the cut, and Ben Reece, took the role of Fretless Bass. Quickly, it became apparent that what these men were doing when they played music together was creating an experience that transcended the articulation of modern American language.
Their music stems from taking risks, breaking down musical barriers, yet retaining the pure musical integrity that identifies American and world roots music. All categories describe War Pigeon as well as they negate what War Pigeon is all about. Aural globalization: Music without boundaries. Cody Rahn''s time bending break-beat infested chop fest is neatly challenged by the charging, bowl jarring sub-sonic bass passages of fretless-wonder Ben Reece.
Spinning the band into a web of succulent tangibility is the lyrical perfusion and mind-warping guitar wizardry of Ben Bloom. To say that War Pigeon takes risks is to say that Seattle is damp. War Pigeon lends its musical influence from such power trios as The Police, Medeski Martin and Wood, and local artists like The Living Daylights and Siamese. Other musical influences include, Frank Zappa, Miles Davis, Led Zeppelin, Billy Cobham, Marvin Gaye and Charlie Hunter.
If you are looking to find original music, it doesn''t get more original than War Pigeon. Raw Musical Adventurism at it''s finest. Leave your real life behind, and experience the revolution for yourself, but check your drawers cause it might get messy!
