Biography:

MandoMorphosis is a creative collaboration of seven mandolin players who have joined forces to explore the boundaries of new acoustic music. Our first CD, titled 2010, is just off the press.

Press:

"It's a varied blend of deliberate musical calculation and free-spirit mayhem... Be prepared for mando departure..."
Ted Eschliman - JazzMando

"Inspiration, collective genius, spontaneity and a touch of bewitching magic…"
Nancy Vivolo - Victory Review

"A creative force to reckon with... a joy to listen to... refreshingly new... 4.5 (of 5) stars"
Jimmy Rae - Skope Magazine

““MandoMorphosis' [2010] is far more melodic and controlled than a seven-member mandolin ensemble has any right to be… There's a vocal quality to the lead parts, and each track on the 60-minute–plus album feels like a different scene from a suspense film.””
Chris Kornelis - Seattle Weekly

"Intricate... energetic... intriguing... brilliant... I highly recommend 2010 for its varied musical styles and approaches, creativity and overall sound."
Wildy Haskell - Wildy's World

"These cats rock right in the pocket. Progressive bluegrass ala the Bela Fleck ilk with energy and good vibes for all that just keep coming… This is certainly a winner for adult ears on the prowl for something new and different... Hot stuff that just doesn’t wear out its welcome.”
Chris Spector - Midwest Record

"[The players in MandoMorphosis] make quite a team and offer up some lightning fast picking… [2010] definitely got my attention... and gave me an appreciation of how much went into such an ambitious undertaking. 4 (of 5) stars."
Keith Hannaleck - MusikReviews.com

““Original and challenging... fresh and joyful... Nice!” ”
Psyche Van Het Folk
