Press Reviews 1st Place: "New Artist of the Year" 1st Place: "Guitarist of the Year" 2nd Place: "Band of the Year" 2nd Place: "Drummer of the Year" 3rd Place: "Studio CD of the Year" 3rd Place: "Live Performance of the Year - Camp Creek" Roadtrippin/WRNR FM - Annapolis MD - Deuce named #10 in top 30 CD's of 2001. Relix says in an article called “ARTISTS ON THE VERGE: The band members have an almost telepathic interaction and are not afraid to experiment. Expect big things.” The New Haven Advocate best summed up PB's special blend: The band is out-and-out fun. Pure, uncut. Such is Psychedelic Breakfast's broad appeal that, substance-infused or not, you can still admire the prowess these young musicians have harnessed (and appreciate the hip-swaying sound)."The Second Annual New Artist Special... Beyond the Verge Psychedelic Breakfast The Recipe: Hyperspeed musical telepathy. This hungry young Connecticut quartet blazes through Zappa and Phish-esque tension and release jams for most of its show. The interplay between virtuoso guitarist Tim Palmieri and spastic drummer Adrian Tramontano is worth the price of admission alone. Palmieri may be the most technically accomplished player on the scene these days. If he can mature into a more patient soloist, the band could take it to the next level. Cosmik Debris As the jam band scene splinters into scenes dominated variously by fusion, funk, country, reggae, prog rock and good ol' hippie rock n' roll, the very best of the bunch continue to be the bands that refuse to be limited in their sources or expression. Connecticut's Psychedelic Breakfast is a prime case in point. On their Sonance Records debut (they self-released an earlier disc in 2000), the quartet draws from all of the above at one time or another, and in the process creates one of the most distinctive sounds in a scene filled with soundalike bands. It helps that they display an impressively strong level of musicianship. To be good enough to go wherever your muse leads you means being pretty damn good indeed, and these guys are damn good players, one and all. The rhythm section, drummer Adrian Tramontano and bassist Ron Spears, set a tight groove for keyboardist Jordan Giangreco and the extraordinary guitar work of Tim Palmieri. The almost extrasensory precision of the ensemble is amazing given their relative youth and brief history. They sound like they spent a decade woodshedding before hitting the studio, but have been together less than a quarter of that time. They all take turns at songwriting chores, and while they sometimes drift into stereotypically "hippy dippy" poetic excess, it's forgivable in light of the solid melodies and impressive changes they construct as a base for their jams. Out for their first national tour on the heels of their SXSW showcase, Psychedelic Breakfast appears poised for a major breakthrough. Based on the music on Deuce, they deserve one. � 2002 - Shaun Dale
