Supertaster is the latest offshoot of the Jazz Mafia, San Francisco's eclectic and highly talented musical collective. Formed in late 2007, the band features Adam Theis on bass, trombone, and electronics, Jon Monahan on guitar and electronics, Matt Berkeley on keyboards, Joe Bagale on drums, vocals, and electronics and the dynamic Karyn Paige on vocals. They share an encyclopedic (and shameless) knowledge of pop, rock, and hip-hop music, reinventing these songs with every performance. In the last year the band has played regularly at Bay Area festivals, lounges, nightclubs and as the house band for the well-known Wednesday Night Sessions at Royale in North Beach. They are known for their incendiary live performances at dance parties throughout the Bay Area. Supertaster is currently writing original music for an album.
