Wingnut - Ithaca, NY
A Hammond B3 Organ-powered trio, based out of Ithaca,N.Y. Wingnut music is mostly instrumental, drawing from jazz, hip-hop, funk, soul, trance and other genres. With high regard for dynamics, the groups original compositions transform from funky Hammond B3 organ groove to deeply melodic piano passages into tear-your-head-off distorted fender rhodes evil. Wingnut music is exploratory but maturely composed, balancing intense, aggressive improvisation with solid foundation and structure...
Their 2nd CD, "Color" (with 10 studio + 2 live tracks), features many special guests, including a few tracks with a female vocalist, and others with DJ MOP on turntables.
“This three piece from Ithaca proves that in any day and age there is big ass room for high quality jazz...This album is an excellent exploration of jazz styles and is a proven perfect complement to the after hours scene. Highly effective stuff and is a must for you and your dad’s collections.” -Main St. Marcus, Revolving Door Music Guide, 6/99
