Artist description
Tori Amos meets Tabla Beat Science meets Peter Gabriel.
“Pieces of East” is an adventure of eclectic music and song seamlessly fused to prove that diversity in various forms can truly co-exist.
After playing in Austin for only a few months and consistently drawing large crowds, “Pieces of East” was invited to play at some of Austin’s most coveted venues (Antones, Cactus Caf and the Austin Music Hall) with some of the city’s finest musical talent such as Del Castillo and Patrice Pike. The buzz of the group’s fresh new sound quickly spread and the demand for recorded material reached a fever pitch.
Recently the group was nominated for eight Austin Music Awards and they ended up winning two of them.
