The great Duke Ellington once said "There are only two kinds of music, good and bad." We have been influenced by the music that inspired us to choose an instrument and spend years of our lives learning how to speak through it.

In July of 2007 while doing a gig with Julian's father Larry Coryell, Karma and Julian were introduced minutes before walking onstage together. It was quite a special evening and a strong connection was made. After the show they spoke about doing something together and Nick's name was brought up. In early August they all got together for the first time and wrote an album in four hours.
After a day of getting sounds CAST! went into Julian's studio in Venice and spent 3 days cutting the album. The strategy was simple: Play down the list, get lunch, do it again. No headphones were used in the making of the record. Just three guys in a room playing. "We basically recorded a live album in the studio. We gave ourselves an opportunity which is so rare in today's clinical approach to recording, we just played."
We hope you enjoy the music. If you do, please let someone else know who may also get some pleasure from it. Thanks for stopping by, God bless, whoever your god may be and as always,
Peace Through Music...
Julian Coryell has been playing and recording
music since childhood with everyone from his father
(legendary jazz guitarist Larry Coryell) to Carole
King, Jewel and Aimee Mann. An Alumnus of the
Berklee College of Music, he's also performed with
Dave Brubeck, Herbie Hancock and Billy Cobham.
He's produced legendary singer/songwriter Leonard
Cohen, and recently played to sold out crowds at the
world famous Budokan in Tokyo with Japanese rock
star Kazuyah Yoshii.
Julian's most recent musical passion is CAST!, an
eclectic jazz trio with drummer Karma Auger and
bassist Nick Sample. Says Julian, "CAST! is my
opportunity to take what my father has given me and
run with it".
CAST! has recently completed their first full length CD
and will tour extensively in '08.
Karma Auger's musical education began close to the
beginning of his life. His earliest memories are of his father, legendary jazz keyboardist Brian Auger playing electric piano at the house in London. At age 2 Karma was
already threading the tape on his father's reel to reel and
plugging in headphones to listen to dad's new masters. At
age 3 he began playing piano which he still playes today but
it wasn't until age 20 that he found his true passion; Drums.
Since age 21 Karma has been touring and/or
engineering/producing tracks for his father and a huge list of
world class artists including Eric Burdon (The Animals), Robby
Krieger (The Doors) and Billy Cobham to name a few. His
understanding of the business rounds out his musical
education which Karma owes greatly to his father. " My father has given
me a priceless education and I am lucky enough to work
with him today."
Nicklas Sample began his musical education as a young child watching his father, jazz legend Joe Sample. Born and raised in Los Angeles, Nicklas has gained over 20 years
experience in the music business learning all creative and business aspects of the industry
first-hand. Nicklas immersed himself in the LA scene as a professional bass player,
playing both electric and upright with the local talent such as Nikka Costa, Zoo Story,
Daniel Cage, Jakob Dylan, Duke Daniels and Alison Sudol of “A Fine Frenzy” (whom
he has also co-written songs with). He is also the bass player and member of “The
Crusaders” and the “Joe Sample Trio”. Forty years of experience in the music business
is an unprecedented amount of information to gain in just the few years Nicklas has been
working with his father. “Joe Sample is the best teacher I could ever have”, “I’m
learning from the best”.
