Oceans Roar 1000 Drums
Oceans Roar 1000 Drums is a musical testament to the words attributed to Heraclitus: 'We both step and do not step in the same rivers; we are and are not.' Formed in NYC in 2008, the trio is Todd Capp (drums and cymbals), Bryan Eubanks (saxophone electronics) and Andrew Lafkas (doublebass).
Their music carves a deep groove in the flow of time, drawing in a continuous circulation of textures that obscure any difference between entropy and stillness. They have released 3 recordings to date, and regularly perform in Europe and the eastern US. Their extended family of collaborators includes Catherine Lamb (secondary rainbow synth) and Xavier Lopez (modular synthesis).

"Come rain, come shine,
I meet you and to me the day is fine.
Then I kiss your lips and the pounding becomes
The oceans roar, a thousand drums"
- Johnny Mercer
