A thousand angels descended from heaven performing instrumental Holy music for you mere ungrateful mortals.
If you listen enough to the bands that influence 13 Strings, you'll soon start to notice that most of their songs are thinly veiled ripoffs of tasty riffs written by obscure bands that they hoped would never be noticed by their audience. Nevertheless, it's undeniable that the resulting music is as unique as their instrumentation. The moniker "13 Strings" was cleverly borne from the combination of the soaring melodies, funky grooves, and pristine harmonics of Justin's 7-string bass (clearly purchased to compensate for something) and the chunky rhythms, warm arpeggios, and jazzy riffs of Johann's 6-string acoustic (borrowed from a friend, clearly because he's too cheap to buy a new acoustic).
Math Lesson of the Day: 7 strings + 6 strings = 13 strings
13 Strings is reborne after a 15 month hiatus, when Justin and Johann forayed into the crazy world of heavy metal with the now defunct prog-rock leviathan, VedA. Once a popular favorite at Hot Java Cafe and sausage-heavy college parties, 13 Strings has sprung back into action and is currently working on a new catalogue of instrumental acoustic music with plans to play Southern California venues and cut a self-produced album. Whether they're serenading you in 7/8 or jamming a 12 bar blues chord progression (undoubtedly in E), 13 Strings is sure to amaze you with their uniqueness, their song-writing, their cuteness, and of course, with their ridiculously huge 7-string bass.
Check them out, and give them all of your money. If you don't, tiny evil monkeys will crawl into your pants at night and eat your testicles. And if you don't have testicles, they will attach someone else's testicles to your chin. Consider yourself warned.
i love the whole heavy base in your songs they would turn into average acoustic pieces without and theirs loads of them already. thats no to say the guitar isn't awesome as well i just love the base lines!!
13 strings firmly believes in the right to free speech and will not censor any form of expression, even if that expression comes in the form of a homosexual myspace script.

Okay...now that you guys have your gay little piano, will the fans be expecting any music from the instruments' name-sake, or will they be forced to keep drooling over the mysterious and in vogue debonaire drummer? His debut into this seemingly go-nowhere; do-nothing style acoustic band is long awaited, you know? Give the public what they want...give them something amazing!
