Description
Water Babies is all about the energy and spontaneity of improvised music. We came together as an experiment to see if we could strip away everything we knew about form and chord changes and just ride The Groove. What we have found has exceeded our wildest expectations. All of our songs are one-take improvisations rooted in The Groove which we hope will have you shakin' your thang!
Every one of our shows is full of surprises and unexpected twists and turns. Magical interaction and tight coherence ensues as we develop new musical ideas in every moment. We draw inspiration from each other, from the audience, from the atmosphere of the room, and from our musical forefathers, groups like Herbie Hancock's Headhunters, Miles Davis' Bitches Brew band, Maceo Parker, and Medeski, Martin & Wood.
Above all, we never lose our main focus: To deliver the most distinguished and funky improv grooves we can muster and share the joy that comes from creating magic in each moment.
See you at the gig!
Yours,
Jason, Aaron, Josh and Brad
