Apart from creating incredible sound textures and reckless ditties, Gamma Like Very Ultra are interested in the ABC's of everything, not only sound. Pants. Shoelaces. Broken fingers. The incredible & the mundane. The perfect chord. The ABC's of experience, let's say.
With influences as diverse as Frank Zappa & the Mothers of Invention to the Meat Puppets, with a little bit of CAN & the Minutemen thrown in for good measure, Gamma Like Very Ultra is making a name for themselves within the Tucson experimental rock scene. Fans of Captain Beefheart, Neu!, & Sonic Youth will find much of interest in these sounds.
Gamma Like Very Ultra are an avant-rock band from Tuscon, Arizona. The group formed in 2006 as a found sound / melodic noise collaboration between Joseph De La Rosa & Christine Heinisch to combine found sound and electronic noise effects with live instrumentation. The group now includes composer Ariella Lake of Apartment. Ariella is a long time friend and collaborator of the group, who plays the guitar. With their full line-up, the band is moving into new territory
The band are presently recording a full length avant-rock album, via their hands-on FaceTrain label, tentatively titled "Adventure Land: An Assortment of Fresh Fruits and Vegetables".
