Bio
"Jazz From Outer Space"
The Static Port is a groove-oriented quartet whose sound blends together funk, progressive rock and ambient/trance with jazz from outer space improvisation. Hailing from Albany, New York, the band features not one, but two bass players. The Static Port’s unique sound is accented by the double-barreled bass playing and is born from their improvisational jam sessions and Avant-garde experimentation. The musical roots of influence on the band include Frank Zappa, 70’s-era Miles Davis, King Crimson, and Medeski Martin and Wood.
Differentiating itself from the every day jazz or rock and roll band, The Static Port pushes the envelope into exploring the various affects of sound on the listener, with the resulting end: a mentally-charged musical journey.
The four members of The Static Port came together March of 2006, and since have been laying down the tracks for their largely instrumental debut album, due to be released July of 2007. The band is Neal Berntson/Drums & Percussion, Steve Gregory/Bass, Chris Jordan/Bass and Trumpet, and Bill Pyle/Guitar and Trombone.
