   About Mahogany Frog
Mahogany Frog is a recording/touring band. The music draws influence from an array of genres: electronica, progressive rock, jazz, late 50's "ultra" lounge, ambient/experimentalism. With the use of a plethora of keyboards (both analogue & digital), feedback-ridden guitars, fuzz-bass and walls of electronic samples, the group creates a tube-saturated, highly overdriven jazz-rock, usually performed at extremely high decibels and with an enormous amount of energy. The music itself can be both challenging and soothing to the listener: stabbing riffs using unusual notes and time signatures often dissolve into lush electro-soundscapes, and straightforward, rhythmic interludes can merely lay the foundation for syncopated counter-melodies or sound effects. The orchestration of the instruments are unorthodox at times: using complex modal progressions or phrases as a basis for experimentations in arrangement, the rhythm and lead sections trade roles quickly and often. Musically speaking, the four members of Mahogany Frog have the tendency to spread themselves thin, as they attempt to tackle slicing leads and warm backdrops simuntaneously. Live, the songs all flow together, creating a steady bombardment of highly progressive, exciting music that explores countless moods and ideas.

Greetings Frogs...

Just got your new album! Looking forward to an indepth listen later in the week. Was very intrigued when a friend who is into 'avant-prog' made me aware that there was a band right here in town with a rep in places that actually matter (you know the ones I mean, lol). Congrats!!

Being that we are both isolated here in 'sonic-Siberia', if there's ever anything we might be able to help you with... just give us a call... Maybe we could 'synergize'.

How are the frogs in the new year? I hope you have as many big plans as we do, and are off and hopin' on them as we speak. We have a lead guitarist now and can't wait till you hear our full length which is finally out, from our hands only. long live the prog frog rockers.
