Illusion Dwellers
We are currently just in the jam to have fun mode. We have actually be doing only that for a pretty long time. The last time we played out as a group was a while ago. Maybe if I get motivated and ever finish up with all this grad school nonsense we will gig once in a while. We play a mix of covers and original leaning more towards covers at the moment. Two of the band members did just bring in some new originals which I may post.
The current line up is Dave Levinson (Vocals, Guitars), Jay Blum (Keys, Guitars, Vocals), Art Cohen (Guitars, Vocals), Jerry Levinson (Bass, Vocals), Dan Hopper (Drums, Percussion), and Matt Elberson (Drums, Percussion)
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
We just changed the name from Cosmic Blues.
Our old Bio follows:
We are into jamming out and having fun. We like to jam in the style of the 1969-1972 Grateful Dead (and we sometimes get to a similar space and spirit...:-) If you want us to pack up all our junk and come make your party or bar an outpost in 'Psychedelic Space' it's cool with us. We need a bit of notice to plan it tho so let me know... My email works!! Oh Yeah. If you are into taping us at one of our rare ventures into the ether it's fine with the band. Live taping and trading is 'officially sanctioned')
We play psychedelic-influenced blues/rock, both original and cover tunes. We love to jam and let the music take us to new and different spaces. Disclaimer: The band name Cosmic Blues was just made up 'cause were into Cosmic tunes and most of 'em are based on the blues, however...
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Nowhere except Jerry's basement for now.
Your musical influences
Grateful Dead, Pink Floyd, Neil Young, Clapton, Hendrix
What equipment do you use?
