Count Blastula, a funk/jam band from Syracuse have been well over 15 years in the making, and now the group has landed on a killer lineup that is really turning up the heat.
Count Blastula is characterized by a funky, groovy, get-up-and-move style of jamming. They perform enticing originals and covers combined with a dose of magic that propels the group into serious jamming territory. The band brings their talent everywhere from large festivals and theater shows to private events and intimate local bar gigs. Count Blastula bring their own brand of top-shelf homegrown music to events of all shapes and sizes.
The group displays a diverse full soundscape via a multitude of instruments that can be heard on any given tune, along with a dynamic, and ever-changing flow of rhythms, tones, and arrangements of sounds. Each song by Count Blastula encompasses a unique number of changes and musical movements.
The current band consists of five members: Adam Fisher on guitar/vocals, Jeremy Walts on bass/vocals, Mike D’ambrosio on keys, and Dave Schlossberg and Dave Donley on percussion. When the group tours, they may add a few others like a saxophonist, or other various instruments.
The group has released five unique EPs over the last 12 years. Their music is very much inspired by a wide variety of genres. Funk, rock, jam band, jazz, hip hop, country and more are heard throughout the tunes. You can hear inspiration from Grateful Dead, Dave Matthews Band, Charlie Daniels, and Phish from the music.
