Fusion Rock. Rock Nouveau. Trance Rock. Acoustic Electronica. Whatever you call it, the unique dynamic of the band starts with a violin and a nylon-stringed guitar - both enhanced by a barrage of effects - and gets driven by an arsenal of percussion.
The music is informed by the extensive classical training of Wright and Ostberg, as well as the unique sound Bardusco brings from his experience as a self-taught guitarist growing up in Venezuela. The three players weave all their diverse flavors into a cohesive, powerful and unique sound. The influences of popular bands like The Police, Stone Temple Pilots, Alice in Chains, The Dave Matthews Band, Phish, as well as the rhythms of Latin grooves and European techno/house music have found new life in the music of meniskus.
The canon of meniskus music currently stands at nearly 60 original songs, with 12 of the best of those recorded last year on the band’s second full-length album, “Foreign Beyond.” With the guidance of Producer John McVey and the facilities of Coupe Studios (The Fray, Rose Hill Drive, DeVotchKa), “Foreign Beyond” promises to build on the success of the band's 2005 debut release, “The Wall of Sound.” The release of “Foreign Beyond” is being supported through a video for the single “Letters,” as well as US and European tours.

Here is a set list I sketched for you fellas to use for your gig at this Saturday's Mile Hi Music Festival...in no particular order...no wait, it is in a particular order:
I think this may run a little long for a 30-minute set. I'll let you take one out if you have too, I don't have the heart to remove one. It just looks so tasty.
Hey- I saw you sent moe. a comment about you guys playing at Mile High. I had already sent them a message telling them to check you guys out... Hopefully they will. Maybe we could get you on the moe. down line up next year! Luv Ya- Rach
