Quivertwist An original band that was formed in November 2000. They are an instrumental trio that create adventures in groove by incorporating elements of rock, jazz and blues into their unique style. Managing to sound like none of these while using them all, they write music that defies easy classification. The band members' eclectic musical tastes range from Kyuss to Dream Theater to Morphine to Mr. Bungle to 311, and all contribute to their genre-bending tendencies. Their songs are hooky and to the point. It is instrumental music that commands active listening from its audience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
