Bio / Background
Flash Gordon with his friends Glenn Smith & Doug Williams started their musical adventures together in the year 2000 creating a folkier sounding folk rock vibe. On the first album (released 2002) the upright bassist and the violinist in the band at the time drew comparisons in their music to groups like It’s A Beautiful Day, Pentangle & Fairport Convention. When Tori Lewis joined the band the sound got a little stronger with her electric bass and the songs got a little more rocking. The new album ‘BETTER’ features 11 new songs and this time Doug plays traditional trap drums as well as congas. Flash’s vocals and flute along with Glenn’s brilliant acoustic guitar playing are certainly the most notable instrumentation but it’s the songs themselves that make ‘Adventures In Music’ worth listening to. Besides Glenn’s wonderful background vocals & harmonies he plays a killer blues harp on two songs.
↓ more ↓Flash switches to the saxophone for the song “Foggy Music” and like the first album many friends contribute fine playing to songs throughout the album to add piano and percussion to the adventure. The lead track is a tribute to Flash’s late sister Heather Ann who was the victim of domestic abuse in 1998. After many attempts Flash feels “Heather Ann” honors the life of a beautiful woman that was afraid of nothing. Because the guitars are acoustic it's still "Folk/Rock" but this time it's a little more rocking. It's hard to say who 'Adventures In Music' sounds like because they have their own sound but I assure you it is well worth the adventure.
