Band Members

Percy Jones

is the most revered fretless player alive, and has inspired thousands of bassists with his unique style. Percy has forged his own path in his approach to the instrument, bewitching the listener with what he brings to the music of Tunnels.

Marc Wagnon

on midi-vibes is a trailblazer on the electronic mallet instrument. A dazzling palette of sounds and virtuositic technique is his offering to the harmonic structure of Tunnels' music.

Walker Adams

on drums, is a newcomer to the band. His combination of unusual musical instinct with an inescapable mastering of the groove makes him much in demand in the jazz and rock scene.
Sounds LikeBrand X, Weather Report, Chick Corea Return to Forever, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Tribal Tech, Niacin, Jaco Pastoruis, Squarepusher.

   About Percy Jones and Tunnels


"Tunnels overtakes the listener, to a point where musical categories are rendered meaningless. While solidly grounded in the best tradition of jazz and progressive rock, the music the band produces brings you backwards and forwards at the same time, conveying in unbridled enthusiasm, a rarity in contemporary music."

Mario LISTEN TO MY NEW WAVE DURAN DURAN-LIKE MUSIC





Apr 22 2008 10:18 AM

Hi there!
Check out my brand new song, a electronic-new wave/art-rock one titled “The Cyborg”!
And don’t miss the previous ones:
“Last Night At Chrysalis Hotel”, an instrumental spacesynth track full of colourful melodic solos and harmonies;
"Just Illusion", kind of a baroque jazzy-pop tune with sax, some classical piano/strings influences and my usual mickkarnian "fretless frenzy" trademark!
"The World Is On Fire", which has got some Duran Duran's,Alphaville's,Classix Nouveaux's, The Associates', Wim Mertens', B-Movie's and The Killers' touches, I think!
Then the psychedelic-postpunk/symphonic-powermetal trashy tune"Formerly Known As The King" - somehow inspired by Muse and Sonata Arctica - and the jazzy-eastern-prog ballad "Nothing To Believe In",whose arrangement owes much to the likes of David Bowie, Arcadia, Masami Tsuchiya, Japan, David Sylvian, Mick Karn, Dolphin Brothers, Nine Horses, Furniture, The Associates, Billy Mackenzie, Metro, Scott Walker, Eyeless in Gaza,The Cure, Erik Satie, Eberhard Weber, Arrakeen, Bertrand Betsch...) and let me know what you think!
Hope you enjoy my music!
cheers from Rome
Mario

Hi Percy
Thanks for the add.
Interesting how the time is gone and things are changing.
So i closed my club TUNNELS in Cologne/Germany about 8 years ago,
and moved to Ibiza to make more music.
And you changed Brand X to TUNNELS.

After a deep looking in to my archive, i found the poster and flyer of
your last Brand X concert in my club. End of the Manifest Destiny-tour.






The best Band i ever mixed in my life !!!!
