mastic: a chewy gummy goo that binds things.
MasTicA: That's us! a band name that holds this Austin trio together.
Gum B. sings and plays cello, mandocello and basses - lots and lots of basses.
Munkey sings too, and plays sax & clarinet and guitar.
And Pat, he plays the drums stuff.
Monkey is young and hasn't played with any big shots yet.
Gum B. played with Alejando Escovedo, Poi Dog Pondering, Arhtur Brown and Stick People.
And Pat, he played with all the big shots like King Crimson, XTC, Michael Penn, Ted Hawkins, David Sylvian, The Rembrandts, Jude Cole, and oh yeah - Mr. Mister.
They made this record '99 available on FWD records. It was recorded in Austin, Tx. and mixed with engineers Bill Munyon, (Butthole Surfers), and Mike Mcarthy, (Fastball). It was mastered in England with David Singleton at DGM.
The group initially performed live improvisations, and the obvious chemistry between the three eventually led to these recordings on '99, with the focus on songwriting. MASTICA (pronounced Mas-TI-ca) exudes an adventurous spirit that matches intuitive artistry with musical excellence.
Here is some guy's quote:
" '99 blends an evocative mix of male and female voices with electronic and primitive drumming. Rounded out with the unusual instrumentation of multi-layered basses, cello, mandocellos, electric clarinets, saxophones and guitars. MASTICA delivers a strong debut."
