From Strictly Off The Record:
“Strictly Off the Record is a five piece with a lineup that includes two guitarists who possess a knack for raw and beautifully awful chords as well as an exceptional young lady lifting the tracks with some orchestrated violin. Originally started in 2006 by Christopher Reynolds as an acoustic/electronic project it has evolved into something much more intricate than that.”
“Hailing from Chicago, IL, The Coop is a four piece project that combines traditional instrumentation with on-stage production to create a true fusion of electronic sensibilities and organic live music. The Coop constructs original works by focusing on the balance of both improvisation and composition. Combining elements of today’s electronic music styles with classic sounds of rock, jazz, dub, funk, and reggae keeps the group’s sound in a state of constant change.”
