"Song of the Week" ~ Moons of Jupiter by: Sky Picnic

After Featuring Synesthesia in Apr. of '09, we invited NYC's "PsychProg" band, Sky Picnic, to play the IndepenDisc 11th B'day Bash at Cafe` 9 that year. It was a sort of homecoming for Shelton native Chris Sherman, so he & the band we're "psyched" to play. They melted our faces. We're going to see them when they return to CT this Sat. 10-16 at Two Boots in Bridgeport were they will be appearing with: Like Trains & Taxis.

Want to know more about them? Check the links, tune into Radio IndepenDisc, read this blog and of course listen to the:

"Song of the Week" for 10-13-10: Moons of Jupiter* by: Sky Picnic off the CD: Synesthesia.

Featured on IndepenDisc in Apr. of '09 - Here's what I (G.Gone) had to say about it then...

~snip~ Here Sky Picnic sends us on a universal journey outside the mind and the body – the spirit is being lifted into outer and inner space. All the echo, reverb, Wah Wahs, and whatever else they’ve got going on here is just mind blowing. Dig the drums, subtle, laying back, playing an important role as the guitar’s high notes are picked about and carried by a droning and thumping bass to create a song that parallels The Who’s “Sparks” from Tommy. So trippy, so cool. This song accentuates it’s Moons of Jupiter title perfectly as it gives off stratospheric sensations that tingle the mind and soul.~snip~ Read the entire review HERE.
