A drum & megatar duo working overtime to deliver the full sound of a 5-piece hard rock group...RIGHT BEFORE YOUR EYES!
WELCOME to The Dino Haak Collective on myspace. We are an evergrowing collective of musicians with a common goal: to create music that transcends the usual and predictable. The Dino Haak Collective is primarily a duo, consisting of Dino Haak on Megatar and Alex Westcoat on drums. The duo frequently collaborate with other friends/artists, making the band more of an artistic "collective." For instance, The DHC can be seen with Seattle legend, Artis The Spoonman for select shows (performing as Artis the Spoonman & The Dino Haak Collective). Our music is heavy, melodic, and ever so focused on groove. The Dino Haak Collective are currently performing new, original material in addition to songs from Dino Haak’s previous bands, the Kevorkian Cannibals, Instant Guru and FATHER.
ABOUT DINO HAAK: German artist, Dino Haak, once known as "Father—The Artist" is best known for his work on the Mobius Megatar, an instrument of the Chapman Stick family also played by the likes of Trey Gunn and Tony Levin. Though Haak’s music is mostly known for its groove-heavy, tight and hooky songwriting, the sound of his Megatar adds a powerful almost eerily symphonic element to the overall feel. Dino Haak’s legal move to the US from Germany was supported by well known players in the music industry such as Trey Gunn (King Crimson), Don Schiff (Pat Benatar), Greg Howard (Dave Matthews Band), Emmett Chapman (Inventor of the Chapman Stick) and others, who helped him to be awarded an Exceptional Artist Visa in 1999 and to finally choose the Northwest as his now full-time residence since 2000.
ABOUT ALEX WESTCOAT: Alex is a forward thinking drummer with a very ecclectic musical background. He has excelled in a wide range of musical genres over the years, expressing his love for authentic feels and deep grooves. He is known for backing anything from jazz, latin, and fusion to reggae, funk, hard rock, alternative rock, etc. … Besides delivering his unmistakeable trademark back-beat to The Dino Haak Collective, he is also currently working with Tacoma’s own funk/jazz/jam-band, The Schematics, as well as several up and coming singer songwriters from the Seattle area
ABOUT THE COLLECTIVE: Dino and Alex have developed strong, musical friendships with other artists in the area. In the spirit of musical exploration, the duo can be seen sharing the stage with these talented individuals. So far The Collective consists of DJ James Ho and the legendary Artis the Spoonman. The Collective adds an element of surprise for our fans, making each show an innovative and unique experience.
See it to believe it and keep on checking this site for upcoming Collective shows. See you soon...
