Short History
Forever Einstein is a three piece band playing original instrumental music that incorporates a truly broad range of influences. Many bands are described as being "eclectic" and, let's face it, the term is often a stretch. Here is what a typical hour of Einstein sounds like: some surf rock influenced stuff, bits of King Crimson style prog rock, a few scattered heavy metal solos, suggestions of country guitar, a few middle eastern or Balkan scales, something moody in 5/4, something frantic in 7/8, sonic references to spy music, sci-fi movie soundtracks and flat out jazz and more BUT the central core of Einstein is a dedication to the song form (verse/chorus) and reliance on melody, harmony and polyrhythms. We're not a 'jam' band or a prog rock band. This is what we tell people at cocktail parties and art gallery openings when they ask what the band sounds like.
Forever Einstein was formed by me (Chuck) in 1989. Since then we have been putting out CDs on the Cuneiform label (many thanks everyone there!). Where are we going? The Grammy's of course! On the way there we hope to keep our wits about us and our sense of Einsteinian compositions.....
