   About the inversions
the inversions is a four piece rock band; three song writers, three part harmonies, and dedication to the gorgeous and the bent music round out the sound.

The story:
Will and Ryan started the project and have worked with Sacramento’s finest along the way to meeting Adam and Scott, two more life long musicians.
Adam was gigging with his own band and running his promotion company when he met Will and Ryan’s group, Penwin, and took them on as a client. After a year of progress in this relationship, he disbanded his company, joined what became the inversions, and put all of his writing and organization efforts into the new collaborative band.
Scott has been a drummer since his motor skills developed and has been at the top of Sacramento’s talent pool for years.
The name refers to the inversion layer created at dusk when sound refracts more during the coming night over the day’s pocket of warm air.

The players & their quirks:
Adam Varona: guitar/vocals > Talking Heads/Lou Barlow/Brian Wilson
Will Comstock: guitar/keys/vocals > John Lennon/Granddaddy/Radiohead
Ryan Offield: bass/clarinet/vocals > Primus/Thelonious Monk/Morphine
Scott McConaughey: drums > James Brown/Gene Krupa/The Funk Brothers

Albums:
"What's the Cannon For (3/08 release) & “All is Well” LPs, “State” & “Anywhere But Them” EPs.

Consider your request to inundate SNR with emails heeded and acted upon. Now return the favor and come see THE RICKY AND DEL CONNECTION!!!! Friday, April 18th at the Fire Escape, 7341 Madison Avenue (at San Juan). Your CD is lovely and wonderful.

Hey, like, maybe you guys could add some of the songs from your new CD "What's the Cannon For" to your playlist! I'd do it but I'm tired and the disc is upstairs. But I'm into it...
