Group Members The membership changes constantly, but core members include Frank Rotondo as bandshepard, moogist and thereminister; Allesandro DellaMarconi on the Fender Rhodes, Bobo Rafferty on the trap set; his brother Clyde on percussion and beatbox; and Dickie Cessna playing the Fender-bass.

Instruments Moog, Theremin, Bass, Drums, Djimbe, Electric Piano, possibly a live interpretive dancer, violin, homemade tube horn, saxophone, trombone, and a space-echo or 2.

Press Reviews "The Detroit-based group, with their revolving lineup of musicians and an improvisational approach to live performace, display elements of jazz, rock and experimental soundscapes anchored by a backbone of consistent and often complex rhythms." --Jon Moshier, WDET program host
