Details:
Planetary is formed by the trio of Martin Schaefer-Murray (guitar and lead vocals) Bobby Schaefer-Murray (bass) and Michael Schaefer-Murray (guitar), with their longtime friend Joe Hengstler on drums. The band is based in Valparaiso, Ind., near Chicago, and has been paying dues in Midwest bars and at local festivals for a decade, including an appearance at the 2005 Chicago Blues Fest. The name of the band, and the shortened moniker by which their fans know them – Planetary – exemplifies who they are and what they hope to accomplish.
They are a rock band, taking influence from a wide range of musical styles and melding it into their own distinct vision of what music is capable of, and how they can interpret and present it in a new way. Like most rock bands worth their salt, Planetary got their start playing, and being influenced by, the Blues. The band was born in 1999 in their mother''s basement, where they spent countless hours learning entire albums by Chicago Blues greats like Buddy Guy and Son Seals. From there, over the course of the past 10 years, Planetary has held onto those roots while expanding outward into various other corners of the musical universe.
Their EP "Souler," released in 2007, marked a new era for the band. With the release, they began moving forward and staking claim to their musical identity...one that acknowledges and appreciates its roots and influences, but is wholly unique to this time, this place and this group of musicians. The name of the EP is a statement of that identity. It speaks to Planetary''s consciousness on both a spiritual and global level. Listening to the songs presented on "Souler" re-awakens the sensibilities of late-60s social consciousness.
Their brand new album, "The Myth Of Progress", is their best record to date. The guitar artistry represents a synthesis of many influences, while clearly establishing a unique musical voice. This creative offering represents the coevolution of the band as they continue to experience postmodern cultural and societal change. An invitation is extended to the listener to participate in this new era of artistic expression and "Indie" musical production.
