"The rate at which this Portland, ME, five-piece can shuffle through sounds is certainly impressive, but it's the tenacity and precision with which they approach the varied endeavors that makes them a modern rock band really worth listening to." - CD BABY
“Their new, self-titled album is masterful — a passionate, gorgeous, intelligent and challenging collection of 11 exceptionally well-crafted compositions. These songs brood and swoon and unexpectedly erupt with an elegance that’s striking to behold.” - Chris Busby of The Bollard
“The Cambiata are a band just about every true music lover should freak over, be they classically inclined or math rockers or old school be-boppers. The band projects so much intensity as though every note was an agonizing decision and yet was the only one that could have ever existed in that moment.” - Sam Pfeifle of The Portland Phoenix
“Their music embodies eeriness, melodrama, and fine tuned flair. Their live performance sounds as crisp as their record tracks. Just when I think I can compare their somber sound to someone else’s, they tweak it and I am left believing they are original.” - Jill Harrigan of The Noise
“…young guys with a surprising array of eclectic influences from a wide palate of genres…vocalist Chris Moulton, just incredible” - Mark Curdo of WCYY
“…performance is less of a rock show and more of a hypnotism…players all sway and sweat, singing along and getting caught up in the current of the music.” - MaineToday
“…their songwriting technique showed, pulling as much from academics as from the rock sphere.” - Chad Chamberlain of The Portland Phoenix
“The band has been playing gigs since 2004, toured around the country a couple of times…interest from record labels.” - Portland Press Herald
“…the most technically accomplished group in town.” - Christopher Gray + Deirdre Fulton of The Portland Phoenix
“…crooning vocals (think somewhere between Daniel Johns and a young Daryl Palumbo)…with influences like The Beatles, Radiohead, Silverchair, and Jeff Buckley.” – www.weworemasks.com
“Local favorites The Cambiata always win big with their intelligent, evolved brand of modern rock.” – SPACE Gallery
“…smart rock ruffians, The Cambiata.” - Arts Guide Portland
The Cambiata are an indie alternative rock band from outside Portland, Maine. The band is composed of Chris Moulton (vocals), Sean Morin (rhodes, piano, guitar, loops), Miguel Barajas (ambient lead guitar, loops), Stan Dzengelewski (bass guitar, keyboards), and Dan Capaldi (drums, percussion, xylophone). Their music and lyrics are moody, dynamic and filled with tension. They sometimes incorporate strings, horns, and other orchestral instruments into their songs.
Formed in 2004, they originally started out as a heavy experimental band. They incorporated elements of jazz, post-hardcore, metal, and pop into their music sometimes all in one song. In 2006 they released their debut album Into The Night. It was very popular locally especially the song “Shards of Pornography”. The band went through line-up and style changes and released the Ep To Heal in 2008. To Heal left behind the breakdowns and screams in favor of interesting chord changes, melodies and new and expansive instrumental textures and soundscapes.
In 2009 The Cambiata released their self titled album The Cambiata on Jan. 9th. The end of everything

if you guys posted the lyrics to your songs, that would be pretty sweet. i sing your songs to warm up before my band plays shows and i don't want to just mumble past the parts i don't know haha.
If anyone is looking for Darling, I just shipped some disc's out to Bull Moose Bangor, Lewiston, and Scarborough. They should be on shelves at the end of this week or the first of next.
your music quite literally saved my life, and I miss you guys so much. Chris, I've loved your music every since lately smithereens, and I'll love whatever you do next. thank you guys so much. <3
chris, were you working at listen up contact solutions in sales around april this year? i was working in CS and i could have sworn i saw you down on the first floor a couple times. so sad u guys are over. take care
I hope you guys knew how amazing you were as The Cambiata. I went to your show on 3/14/08 at UMF and you guys blew my mind. You all are very talented and I know you'll be happy whatever you're doing.
it's all over. they're calling you red rover. paralyzed, by the truth in your lies. it's a shame. to have built such a name. for yourselves and the pain, we endured in the state of maine.
over it now. we replace it somehow. flew the coup, and came up shorter in the loop. you should be ashamed. to have stolen such a name, and murdered it right here in the state of maine.
(so quit. no one's listening to this. for sure. what we bothered for.)
