  • Bio

    Circadian Rhythm Kings happened when Rob Chalfen needed a band to cover one of his Subconscious Cafe slots at the Zeitgeist Gallery here in Cambridge MA. He spoke with Ken Field and Todd Brunel and what happened was an amalgem of at least two different groups, that included saxophonist Andrew Hickman, cellist Robert Rivera and drummer Gary Fieldman. Brunel later recruited bassist/pianist John Funkhouser and the rest has been well fun to say the least. CRhyK has also been privileged to have drummer Mark Nathanson join us from time to time as well as percussionist Brian Healey and violinist Katt Hernandez. Each member of CRhyK is an accomplished and active musician in the greater Boston area and beyond.

  • Circadian Rhythm Kings

    The biological rhythm of day and night is called the circadian rhythm. The Circadian Rhythm Kings is a band which has not stolen its name : they bring highly rhythmic free bop, free funk, free jazz or whatever you name it, alternately, but which immediately appeal to you biological system, and at times it's hard to keep from dancing along. Most pieces are based on a regular beat, but some, as "The Early Worm", are more abstract work-outs, with all instruments more focused on creating an abstract soundscape. The band consists of Andrew Hickman on tenor sax and indigenous wind instruments, Ken Field on alto sax and flute, Todd Brunel on clarinet and bass clarinet, John Funkhouser on double bass and Gary Fieldman on drums. The music is excellent, even really beautiful at times, with bluesy ("The Pen") and sometimes even middle-eastern influences ("Escape Goat"), but the band is at its best when they funk like hell, like on the last two tracks, on which the front-line of the three reeds creates lots of variation and intertwining melodies and counterpoint, while bass and drums create a beat seldom heard in such an otherwise free environment. Fans of Exploding Customer and The Fully Celebrated Orchestra will surely enjoy this one too.
