Sounds Like
We cloned Grace Slick and put her with a weird band.
The December Question parted ways after playing at Red Rocks on August 3rd, 2007. We'd like to thank everyone for all the support we've received over the years. It was a wild ride.
THE DECEMBER QUESTION: Stained Glass Eyes
If you dig it, CLICK IT, BUY IT! It's THAT easy!!
The December Question is defined by musical tension.
Core songwriters singer/guitarist Becky Alter and
bassist Cameron Hays fuse contradictory musical
experiences as a matter of course, creating the unholy
amalgamation of folk and goth, post-modern and
post-punk, classical and classic rock. Cellist Sarah
Forsythe brings an ethereal quality to the band, while
drummer/percussionist James "Buz" Crutchfield grounds
the whole thing and reminds the listener that this is,
in fact, rock and roll. Alter at times seems to be
communing with Janis Joplin, veering off into Grace
Slick territory, and then doffing her hat to Siouxsie
Sioux. The December Question intertwines Alter's
versatile vocals and solid guitarwork with Hays'
spidery lead basslines, Crutchfield’s tight drum and
conga grooves and the sonorous tones of Forsythe's
cello. Fluctuating between extremes of bittersweet joy
and casually tossed-off lament, The December Question
takes what was old about rock and makes it new again.
