Afterthought

I'm surprised that I've gone so long without introducing Afterthought. It's a Jazz quintet that has really been a big part of my life over the past year. The band has Keyboard, Bass, Drums, and the Guitar. We came together as a bunch of talented, improvision-crazy musicians, and we took our music to venues all over Brampton and Toronto. We've also been looking for producers to help us get an album together.

Many of our songs are either completely improvised, or were recorded when first played, and then kept. But still, our music has matured as much as we have, it seems as though we're stepping up our game for every single song we write, and we're giving all that we have for our audiences.

We're also growing in different ways. Our rehearsals are now semi-open, meaning people who aren't officially a part of the band come and jam with us. It's really the beginning of a larger group, we call it the Diminished 2nds. There are so many crazy things about Afterthought, and to truly learn who we are as a band is to witness us live. For the people of Fletcher's Meadow, this chance will end of Friday, June 18th as we are making our final hallway performance to celebrate the end of a successful school year, and for many of us, a remarkable legacy in the school.  

Afterthought; we play first, and think later. Look out for us now that you know us.
