We are so excited that you have stopped by to visit and listen. The Abstract goal is to write music that is not limited to any specific genre. We perform as a rock band and are proud of our diverse fan base. We hope you will find merit in our work. It brings us great joy to share it with you. Our new CD "Checkmate is only weeks away!"
These are excerpts from the History of Abstract.
It was about September 1991, Kitzingen, Germany, A Puerto Rican, a Mexican, and a White guy got together over what was an arguably large bottle of 151 and formed a "musical" group." They had not yet learned to tune their instruments and yet they had a fire...
At some point Chico said, "We need a name for our band." Most of the suggestions were lame...
#1 band in the US Army '92 '93 '94. Those were good trips - rockin the freeworld for Uncle Sam... Oh yeah good times...
Strong German following (spent 5 years playing there in almost every city... )- The members have changed alot over the years, and yet the music remains Abstract...
Yes throughout Central Florida - Abstract has played with Molly Hatchet, the Climax Blues Band, Georgia Satellites and Creed - An Abstract show is unpredictable. Over 2,000 shows later and it is has been quite the ride.
We play every style from bluesy to heavy - it has always been a part of our "live" strategy to be diverse - here are some great influences
Guns & Roses, Nirvana, Metallica, Queensryche,
Yo Yo Ma, MC Hammer, Prince, Billy Joel, Elton John, Paul Stanley, Freddie Merc, Stevie Nicks...
