The Synapse Brothers

• Guitarist

  • May 2009 - Jan 2010

  The Synapse Brothers is a new improvisatory band that merges elements of electroacoustic music with jazz and funk. The band features, in live performance settings, Bob Gluck (keyboards and electronics) and John Myers (guitars and MIDI-guitar), and behind the scenes in pre- and post-production, electronic music pioneer Patrick Gleeson, whose beats and sound design embellish and grace the live playing. The repertoire of the Synapse Brothers explores original work and music of Herbie Hancock's early 1970s Mwandishi Band, of which Gleeson was a member. The results so far have been engaging and, at times, just plain fun. Show less
