  • Bio

    Might Could entertains listeners by creating and performing songs with rhythmically interesting, tight, and neatly interlocking parts. They are instrumental, with a group dynamic that provides a fresh alternative to solo instrumentalists. Their songs draw from influences ranging from heavy metal to progressive rock to jazz, and they've been compared to King Crimson, the California Guitar Trio, Steve Morse, Michael Hedges, Megadeth, and Bela Bartok. The lineup consists of Andy Tillotson, Tim McCaskey, and Aaron Geller on guitar, with Luis "Gordo" Nasser on bass detail. Andy and Aaron are the main composers.......Their story:.... In 2000, Andy and Tim started grad school at the University of Maryland. During a school break in 2001, Andy started recording some acoustic demos with Scott Phillips (writing collaborator on early MC material), and he returned to Maryland eager to play more. Tim joined him in some early open mic performances. Around the same time, they met Gordo, who would study and work at Maryland for the first few Might Could years as well...Around 2003, Tim and Andy met Aaron at an open mic. They discovered he was a perfect fit for a set of Nintendo covers (which became the Motherbrain! alter ego), and he soon became a full member of the band. With a third guitar, the band became at least 50% more interesting...Once the lineup was set and Gordo was offered a pint of Guinness for his trouble, he agreed to lend some beefy bass assistance to the tunes...August 2005 saw the release of ..All Intertwined.., the first full-length and full-band Might Could album. It has been well reviewed by progressive, art-rock, and guitar-based web sites, and has been played on the radio in numerous places...The newest album is called ..Wood Knot.. and was released in late 2007. Two songs from that album ("River of Crows" and "Synecdoche") are available on this page. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. ..
