Incidental Bliss

Incidental Bliss brings the emotion of American Rock to their soulfully rooted song writing, a live open sound, and a message driving home every tune. "A strong old school rock'n roll band, IB lives in the vein of the Beatles, Pink Floyd and the Black Crows, with grooves as thick as molasses covered with soulful B3, raw guitar work and emotional vocals.

Incidental Bliss officially formed in 2002 when key members Joe Barone, and Rich Bellando attended Northeastern University in Boston MA. Relocating the band to New York in 2004 was a challenge that the band openly accepted, if they were going to make it in this crazy business NY would be the right place to get their feet wet. With Tommy Miller rounding out percussion, IB set forth to find a missing link which fell into the hands of Berklee grad Sean Meagher. With the addition of Sean on keys, and recent additions Charlie Thurman on guitar, and Joe Antonelli on Bass, the Sound of IB has molded into a "new"classic rock revolution; all the best elements of the old with a fresh-faced twist on the new.

�The View Inside My Mind�, the latest EP from the band was independently produced and recorded at their LI rehearsal spot. Blessed with the opportunity to use some of the finest analogue recording gear, the band aimed to capture the music in its natural form on 2-inch tape, utilizing live tracking, aggressive guitar tones, and raw vocal takes. The results were overwhelmingly pleasing, rock solid and full of depth, mastered by Brad Blackwood - Memphis TN, �The View� is a must hear, IB�s finest recording effort to this day.
