Artist History NJ rockers Chemical Imbalance combine modern rock, emo, funk, punk, and ska into inventive songs that feature two bassists. Chemical Imbalance are: JG Flegler - lead vocals, acoustic guitar; Mike Burns - lead bass, alto sax, backing vocals; Tony Donoso - bass; Greg Marcus - guitar; Chris Gajewski - drums. C.i.'s newest line-up formed on August 29th, 2002 after Mike discovered an ad JG posted on a website focused on the NJ music scene. JG's audition with Mike and Chris was an overwhelming melting-pot of creativity and talent. Within a few weeks, they picked up the guitar/bass team of Greg and Tony. Together the five agreed to forge ahead with a band that would brush aside the "typical" 5-piece line up with two guitarists and replace it with two bassists. Has it been done before? Sure. Has it ever succeeded? Not until now... "If a band can have two guitarists, why not two bassists?", asks C.i.'s lead bassist, Mike. "Besides, most guitarists are egomaniacs and control-freaks. I've been through dozens of them, Bassists just have better personalities. We're cool, laid-back and have rhythm." Their sound at best can be described as a combination of their influences; The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Faith No More, Tool, Smashing Pumpkins, and Sublime. In January 2003, they will be finishing up their CD featuring six original songs. The songs will include "Naked", "Run From Me", "Save", "All I Mean", "MILF", and "Vivid Memory". Listening to C.i.'s music will take you through a musical journey into a twisted world of lead and rhythm basses from Mike and Tony, JG's vocals, Greg's guitar, Chris' drums and a hint of acoustic guitar and alto sax.
