as featured in metromix.com, "Baltimore Jam Bands: Local musicians extend solos and improvise effortlessly"
"Stushido is a band with a funkier and more danceable backbeat than most jam bands, but it isn't afraid to break out some rock muscle when necessary. A trio with a lead bassist, the group adopts a rhythm-centric approach that drives the songs on an internal combustion engine of Les Claypool-styled riffs. Still pretty new to the scene, Stushido has recently made its name by playing alongside some of the area's best local talent and at some of the coolest festivals around town."

close your eyes.
imagine a scene that defines energy: everyone moving to rhythmic ecstasy with arms and legs akimbo, dancing like nobody is watching, getting down like tomorrow does not exist.
the band is playing at full tilt-- nine or more instruments interpolate to form a unified groove. the intensity of solid rock transmutes to the complexity of a jazz ensemble, and breaks down into a world beat collaborative. the party charges into the rhythms of a breakbeat crew, and amps up unapologetically to electronica disco hyperdrive. feeling the groove, you dance the night away.
open your eyes.
chances are, there's only three cats onstage.
this is stushido., and this is what we do.
In less than a year, STUSHIDO has been truly blessed with the opportunity to share the stage with the following phenomenal musicians:
Lotus
EOTO The Egg 2020Soundsystem Pretty Lights Orchard Lounge J.Wail Ludachrist The Bridge Dub War (joe nice, dave q, jukalki) SEGWAY Drop Electric MJ Project Sonkin We Don't Sleep (messinian & commodore 64) Push one.man.and
Marm0set Damn Right Jimkata
we believe in a scene: rave babies, bring your wicked glow & light show visual artists, come one come all, we love a 3D experience. musicians, hit me up if you want to share in the groove. ladies and gents, bring your bodies, brains, minds, and souls ready to move.
to all, feel free to contact me anytime. we would love to hear your feedback, and get to know everyone getting into this project. this is the music inside us, and the growing numbers of all of you feeling it is an incredible inspiration.
thanks for the love,
-stushido-
