Tongues Of...

In February 2007, A bass player, drummer and a trumpet player got together in one room with no preconceived ideas and started playing. The resulting music is Tongues Of...

Each one of the trio brings multiple voices to the music. Electronic, ethnic and world percussion peppers the solid beat via the Roland SPD drum brain triggers on a Mapex jazz kit. Multiple pedal effects create otherworldly tones not often emitted from the bass: from rhythmic to drone to atonal. Keyboards occasional compliment the Tongues Of sound providing a sophisticated backdrop on which the music unfolds. And a wide array of plastic and metal creates the trumpet's many different voices and is further pushed to a new plane with a loop station creating whole horn section sound scapes. Experimental. Ambient. Electronic tribal rock with a burlesque swagger.

Some folks have been known to have a little trouble finding the Gray Eagle for the first time as it's not located in a pedestrian-heavy area. Once they locate it between Future Traditions warehouse and the Silver Dollar cafe though, they'll see that it's really not that far from all the downtown action and stands guard over Asheville's River Arts District. Quaint and cozy, the Gray Eagle seems to be a modified house-turned-listening room. The Eagle has always been known for it's crystal clear sound, bluegrass, zydeco, and contra dancing. Recently, they have been making a name for themselves on the indie rock circuit, with Harvest Records presenting a series of concerts there. You can go hungry to the Gray Eagle because it hosts the Twin Cousins Kitchen, serving up authentic Cajun cuisine. The Gray Eagle has a capacity of just over 600 people and is NON-SMOKING. All ages are welcome, beer and wine is served.
