Grand Rapids-based jam/fusion band, Glean Infusion was formed in 2007 as a collective musical experience intended to encompass and celebrate the diversity of the band member's influences. The high-energy collective truly embodies what it means to be a "band", finding risk taking, improvising and spontaneous communication to be the keystones of their original, raw sound.
Band members, Adam Balcer (guitar, vocals), Paul Geoghan (bass, vocals), Dan Robinson (drums, percussion), Steve Wheeler (percussion) and Jason Wheeler (mandolin, vocals) have erupted on the regional music scene in a short time and have since performed alongside national acts such as Karl Denson, Ekoostik Hookah, RAQ, Hal Ketchum and many more. Glean Infusion thoughtfully uses music as a means to grow, enhance and celebrate community, art and life.
The smallest bone in the human body is the stapes or stirrup bone located in the middle ear. It is approximately .11 inches (.28 cm) long and man does it shake when people get down. As I'm sure they did while listening to your track during last week's show.
Spring has arrived in Kalamazoo at long last, and I'd like to think people had a head bob going listening to your track while grilling, throwing horseshoes, or simply sitting outside last week.
Yeah, my son is Max, and Evan and Peter are his good friends. They are pretty cool, all of them! I look forward to hearing you on the 8th. Peace to you too! Richard Lubbers
