| About VOX POPULI |
VOX POPULI was born as a creative act in 1990 as a collaboration of spoken word and music between Paul (guitarist) and Todd (vocals). It soon swelled into a multi-media event that included spoken/sung thematic performances that included multiple found object percussionists/noise-ologists as well as traditional instruments, and at one point interpretive dance and video. the revolving cast included up to eight individuals and an ever progressing sound throughout multiple disbanding and reformations... little documentation remains unfortunately...over the years the band has slimmed to core devoted members and coalesced into a standard four peice outfit of melody and noise. thus it continues today. Our performance schedule routinely oscillates between sparseness and density depending on our recording schedules and life's demands. ...............................................................................................................................
