Sounds LikeSomeone with a GarageBand iMac home studio, some instruments and a lot of time. Some heavy guitars with lots of psychelidic keyboard sounds under happy pop melodies with some creative musical ideas. Sometimes you can hear hints of jazz and classical with some severe techno and agressive noises. Sweet ballads and industrial madness meets 70's and 80's retro artsy stuff.

..Click here for Free Music! Click Here For Art and Photos Hi friend and welcome to my music page. Here is some stuff about me and what I do... Photobucket Jason's bio: Jason T. Ingram is a singer, song writer and producer from the US. His music ranges from folk to techno with some heavy guitars and vintage synth sounds. Jason's work has a creative edge with lyrics focused on anything from relationships, theology, social issues and personal experience. Jason Todd Ingram was born in Portland, Oregon and moved to Alaska at the age of twenty to make original music for video productions. In the late 90's he began to teach music and later built another recording studio creating his own CDs and producing the works of others. He played with groups such as His Hands and the Wilo Vasquez Ensemble (in addition to his solo appearances) while living in Anchorage. Mr. Ingram has been through thirty-three US states as well as a dozen countries. Jason lived in the Russian Federation involved in playing music and teaching, Spring of 2000. Jason has been composing and recording his own music since his early teens. In the late 80's he began releasing home-made audio cassette recordings and appeared on radio shows into his late teens. He also worked in community and professional theater in his Portland years. Jason finished the Professional Music Program at PCC as well as graduating from RBTC followed by a missions program in 1999. Photobucket Mr. Ingram relocated to the Midwest during the years of 2005 and 2006 beginning to work in video production and continuing his work in the arts, songwriting and recording. Jason's creative work ranges from mixed media art, creative writing to a wide range of music styles. Throughout the years he has been known to build homemade musical instruments (even ones that randomly "play themselves") and put together teams of creative people to make a spontaneous performance art piece. His stage work can be compared with the genre of Stomp or Blue Man Group. This last summer of 2007, Jason finished his 14 track album entitled "Don't Let the Moonlight Burn Your Eyes". -- Click on the following link for mp3.com: Click Here For Selections From My New Album ----ALSO---- Check Out The New Jason Promo Merchandise: Sippy Cups, Toilet Seat Covers, Truck Bed Liners and Bunny Slippers!

We've decided to go on a steady diet of TV dinners until the DTV changeover, since there will undoubtedly be markdowns and clearance sales galore.
However, they are at the heart of commercialization; therefore, one might conclude to boycott them even after the DTV extravaganza begins!

Hello Me,






My new music upload, "Roy Kilroy" is a jazz fusion/progressive rock piece using two 5 gallon water bottles for percussion, live drums, layered band instruments, e-bow guitar and lots of odd meters.

I have wanted to make a piece like this for a long time but have not ever come this close.
I was inspired by getting back into Gentle Giant and it was Henry Cow (Unrest album) that sparked my interest to go for it! Hope you enjoy the new tunes…

Great clips of your live performances! You and music itself are just different manifestations of the same art form. It's very satisfying to enjoy the creative works of such a multi-talented and spiritually connected person.
Keep up the great work!!

Cheers Jason,

No, I'm no string arranger. An English fellow named Robert Kirby arranged and conducted my strings.

I like your header quote about relatives being on time. My favourite is "If space and time are relative, why didn't they come to my birthday party?"

;-)

All the best,

Luke
