Hypnotic Clambake performing 500 Robots LIVE on PBS' OnStage program.
Hypnotic Clambake has been inciting audiences to riot around the country
since its humble beginnings in Boston, MA in 1990. The intervening time has
seen the release of seven highly acclaimed albums, performances all over
the country with groups such as Phish and the Dave Matthews Band, and
thousands of new fans everywhere they've gone.
In the sceme of things, Hypnotic Clambake's newest release, "Mayonnaise",
successfully visits pop culture and unleashes a pure, sonic, sound
experience that rocks the hum-drum of daily life on the planet as we know it!
It also serves as an excellent condiment on your next sandwich!
Full of irresistable grooves and lyrics, this album explores life, robots, the
daily grind, hope, refrigerators, and the integrity of humanity. Get ready to be
exposed to a new way of thinking about nothing and everything!
"Hypnotic Clambake is a band which believes in fun music and should be taken in large doses." - Bruce Baker, Dirty Linen.
"If you want to twist your brain around some truely new sounds, check out the Clambake. It's guaranteed to be an ear-opening experience." - Matt Laurence, Boston Rock.
"Thank god there are still people out there with a sense of humor. Musicians who not only have a grasp of the technicalities, but also a grasp of the absurdity of our situation in the world." - Cliff Furnald - CMJ, New Music Reort
"On "Square Dance Messiah", this way-ecclectic Boston-based spoofenanny rips a psychoklezmatic swath across the sacred folk sounds of many nations. If ever a reason existed to venture into this neck of the nightlife, these cross-cultural zanies are probably it." - Gehr - The Village Voice
"On "Kent The Zen Master" Hypnotic Clambake embodies the new American man: he's wordly, tuned in, unplugged and hears the music of the world in his head. Hypnotic Clambake has struck again, and the group's archetypical leading man sums up it's whole attitude: make music, play well, have fun. The band members play tag with klezmer, play hide-and-seek with swing, drum like Arabs, sing like Okies, and blow and squeeze like the Count Basie Big Band. They are firmly tongue and cheek, maybe too clever for some folks who don't want to listen, but they are never predictable, never boring, and certainly caustic." - Ciff Furnald - CMJ Journal, New Music Report.

Every time that we listen & write music... play an instrument... dance... act in a play... or work in some audio/image/video engineering process... something is healing inside...
When we share it with friends... something is healing all over...
cada vez que escuchamos o escribimos musica... tocamos un instrumento... bailamos... o trabajamos en procesos de ingenieria de audio/imagen/video.... algo se sana por dentro...
Cuando lo compartimos con otros... algo se sana en todas partes...
El Amor puede conducir... de manera simple... todo...
