Description
A crazy roller coaster ride into the ether of psychedelic fusion, avant garde hip-hop composition, and and good old fashion Improvisations.


Sandia is a quartet hailing from Huntsville, Alabama who pride themselves on a completely original catalog of material as well as an original musical point of view.
After playing previously in a musical project that didn't work out, these four musicians dedicated all of their energies into playing, arranging, and writing all original music. As a unit they come together with a beautiful, playful, fun, yet seriously dedicated mesh of their influences.

Being influenced by everything from experimental jazz-fusion, reggae, and funk, to hip-hop, trip-hop, Electronic, Latin, metal, and progressive rock, Sandia is sure to have something for everyone. With a love for new musical experiences as well as creating them for others, Sandia creates a energetic sound that is sure to open your mind to new realms of listening.

As huge fans of improvisational music, Sandia likes to take chances and explore the possibilities of "on the spot" composition.

Sandia has played all over the Tennessee Valley, including the 2005 Bonnaroo crew party after the festival, in Manchester, TN; as well as sharing billing with Dubconscious, The Avett Brothers, Col. Bruce Hampton and the Codetalkers, Spoonfed Tribe, Electric Junkyard Gamelan, and believe it or not Bone Thugs 'n' Harmony.
With a taste of music for everyone, these four guys enjoy improvising music on a very personal level. Sandia's jams are practically indiscribable. One could only use the word "eclectic." thier philosophy is to play music with good intentions, and spread this understanding on to the listeners.
Look for them throughout the country this year as they make their musical footprints,and be sure to go to their website at www.myspace.com/sandia5
