ABOUT

Blue Bunch Origin offers their listeners a variety of soundscapes ranging from the soft subtly of intimate acoustic interplay, to the dynamic force of a conglomerate of electric instruments hand-crafted by band member, Pheonix Rose. The group formed quickly in late January of 2012, a month after Madeline had moved to the area. Instantly the music flowed and new songs were written within the first jam sessions. The duo is driven by bluesy rhythms and melodies from traditional world cultures, aiming to make music that is both accessible and challenging to preconceived notions of music. We are currently in the process of raising funds to support an EP. Also really looking for a drummer, a flexible string player, hopefully people who like to sing, experiment with sound and who want to play shows [possibly tour].
