Imagine early Incubus meets Phish, waiting for the mothership to arrive. Funky groove-rock jams on a higher plane of consciousness.
Bio / Background
Salamander came together in the wake of the Seattle rock explosion in 1993, originally looking to East Coast jam bands like Blues Traveler, Phish, and the Spin Doctors as well as older hippies like the Allman Brothers for influence.
In hindsight, they now sound like an early version of Incubus, not leaning so heavy on the metal. The band was often compared to the Red Hot Chili Peppers, as well as to Jethro Tull (probably because of the flute).
The band developed a loyal following around the highly organic University District house party scene, then headed to the downtown rock clubs as their sound matured and began to include harder elements of hip-hop and funk.
Salamander would often play two sets a night, throwing in covers and stretching songs in excess of 20 minutes. Percussionist Donovan Curry referred to it as "Choose Your Own Adventure Music".
