Heavy Confetti is a band which defies categories.  Whether due to the eclectic ears of it's creators, or a case of rampant ADHD, HC just can't stay with one genre or fit within any standard musical classification.  The music tends to keep both it's musicians and listeners guessing.  Central to the group's sound is a heavy guitar presence, both acoustic and electric.  On any given tune HeavyConfetti might be playing ambient, blues, jazz, rock, punk, found-sound, metal, prog, reggae, flamenco, speed-metal, or just plain satire or goofiness.  The first CD was released in August of 2001, called "Velcromagnon," a kind of artistic clearing house of HC tunes from the proverbial "can."   The next CD is going to be a combination of electric blues, jazz, and funk.  And probably some other stuff, too.

The name HeavyConfetti  came about as a possible band name for another project, some years ago.  The name wasn't then chosen, but in the back of my mind, I knew I always wanted to use it.  The picks I use for playing guitar are "Heavy" and are speckled with "Confetti" designs.  Hence, "HeavyConfetti."  Of course the term also has a nice oxymoronic ring to it as well.  Also the reality-defiance factor was important:  How can confetti be heavy?
