amalgamation (2008) 6 songs/+30 minutes $7 - includes shipping subliminal (2006) 4 songs/14 minutes $7 - includes shipping ____________________________________________________________ ______ "Clevis is a band stripped of all filigree. It is an orchestra without winds or strings, a jazz band minus a brass section, and a rock group sans the singer. At the core of every musical group is the rhythm section. With just a drum-set and bass guitar, Clevis weaves through a song like a motorcycle in heavy traffic. Time signatures shift without notice, melodies stop and begin, and tempos swerve. The music accelerates and then changes direction. Clevis sounds like a bigger ensemble than it is"-WMUC "Really intricate pieces with lots of atmosphere and also groove"-WBAR ____________________________________________________________ ______ - Walnut Stampede - with animations by: Tawd Dorenfeld (director of The Anna Cabrini Chronicles ) Add to My Profile | More Videos______________________________________________________ ____________ - please support the musicians and artists on our friends list - |
