Non-Existent is playing their own part, however small, in the funk revival of the 21st century, offering their own take on funk as well as a mix of related genres including jazz, blues, and rock. Non-Existent's music is often playful, but also has a serious groove; it is largely instrumental, but also catchy; it is highly orchestrated, but also leaves plenty of room for improvisation. The songs tend to be full of tight transitions, challenging rhythmic switches, spirited solos, and overall a whole lot of energy. Drummer Mike Brown and guitarist Robin Schmidt have been playing together since 6th grade (1996)! Bassist John Zinder - also of the band IY - has been playing with the group since early in 2001, tenor sax player Moses Wilks also since 2001, and trumpet player Danielle Koplinka-Loehr since 2002. Throughout their existence, Non-Existent has become continuously funkier and tighter. Non-Existent plays high-energy shows over the summer and college breaks and continues to write new material. They just released their new album, Pole to Pole! The album is available online at www.non-existent.net/purchase.html as well as at Non-Existent shows and record stores in Ithaca, NY. Non-Existent also just won first place in the 2006 Grassroots Festival of Music and Dance Band Contest!
Hi there NON-EXISTENT first of all we'd like to say thanks for being our myspace pal. We wanted to make sure you knew the reason incase we suddenly vanish off of your friends list. The movement we've started for indie artists has grown significantly and consumes all of our time these days. We seldom sign into our myspace account and this is making several people believe that we are ignoring them. We are not ignoring anyone, we wanted everyone to know that. What we're doing has become so busy we just don't have the time for myspace any longer, so in all honesty we are probably going to just close our myspace account.
Many people wanted to use us in the future so if you were one of those people make sure you bookmark the link below so that in the event that we do close our myspace account you won't lose contact with us. I wish you the best of luck in your music career. Thanks again for being our myspace pal.
We have also built a pretty big music community which you are welcome to join if you want to meet new artists like yourself!

I am asking all of my friends if they can support me by buying my CD available at Walmart.com .
I am very close to being the hottest moving CD along side Corrine Bailey. Help me make the Top Seller List this week if you can.
I have two hits on this album the first one is titled Boys in Boots which went to number 13, and Space which went to number 9 earlier this month. The album is titled "Don't Look Down".
Thank you and please let me know what I can do to return the favor in the future.
