NYC trio Consider the Source defied easy description. They introduced themselves as "Sci-Fi Middle Eastern Fusion" while the audience laughed at the interesting description. Drawing from progressive rock, fusion and jazz, with alien sounds soaked in Indian and Middle Eastern styles, the band’s music strikes a rare balance between cerebral and emotional, intellectual and primal blends parts mashed up into a striking, utterly original whole. Gabriel Marin on fretless double-neck guitar, bassist John Ferrara, and drummer/percussionist Jeff Mann showcased over-the-top chops in the form of freewheeling polyrhythms drumming, percussive bass lines attack, equally suited to simple grooves and impossible chords, and wailing guitar melodies, kaleidoscopic soundscapes and bone-shaking riffs. His show felt shorter than it was and they received standing ovations after the last song. Definitely more homework to do discovering their prolific back catalog.
