Who are they?
Estradasphere is a
band specializing in covering a wide range of musical styles. Their list of
music they've emulated is, (from their
website www.estradapshere.com):
And
believe me, they really have done
music in all these
styles.
They
band consists of the following
members
- Timb Harris - Violin, Trumpet, Mandolin, Throat Vocals
- Jason Shimmel - Guitar, Banjo, Throat Vocals
- Tim Smolens - Bass, Throat Vocals, Keyboard
- David Murray - Drums, Didgeridoo, Flute, Throat Vocals
- John Whooley - Saxophone, Throat Vocals, Winds
Where They Play
Estradasphere are
Santa Cruz,
California natives, and mostly
play concerts in
Southern California. I have seen their
show once in my
hometown,
Los Angeles, at a small
club called
The Knitting Factory. The
concert rocked, and they really got the
crowd going.
They have a small but loyal fan base who
go nuts at their
concerts, although this is changing and they are
attracting a larger
fan base as they mature.
Not much is known of their
history, but I’m sure if you
posted to their
bulletin board, someone would gladly fill you in (possibly a
band member).
