Chimera: New Release from BIG WORDS


3 Elements of Chimera

The third element to make up the mythical creature that is the Chimera, is the tiger. This fierce, dangerous, yet adaptable and most recognizable of all cats, Josh equates with soul, gospel and funk. The tiger represents the Earthy, gritty, feel-good music of this album that is sure to get the crowd jumping, dancing and shakin' their hips. Drawing influences from Van Morrison and Elvis' "Elvis in Memphis," by the end of this album it is the gospel what will leave you screaming Halleluja!

Chimera: New Release from BIG WORDS


3 Elements of Chimera

The second element making up the whole of Chimera is the porcupine. Musically, the porcupine represents the freaky-free-grunge-jazz of this album. Incorporating elements of hip-hop, World music and African rhythms, much of this album takes on the free-jazz improvisations of 70s Miles Davis, and the present day Wayne Krantz. Check out Chimera and let your freakiness ensue.

Chimera: New Release from BIG WORDS


3 Elements of Chimera

The first is the Rattle Snake. The Rattle Snake represents tight executions of modern jazz and funk that you will hear on songs like "King of the Fade" and "Drink This Potion." Both tracks find tightly arranged compositions with influences drawn from The Funky Meters, Van Morrison, and Jimmy Smith.
