Like many of its funky antecedents from New Orleans to New Haven, Thru Spectrums is a family affair. Fronted by the brother/sister duo of guitarist Joe Massa & lead vocalist Amanda Massa, the progressive funk/rock ensemble is rounded out by chosen family from the central NY music scene: the greasy rhythm section of Dan Collins (drums/vocals) & Sterling Clarke (bass), the vintage organ, piano, & synthesizer textures of Samuel B. Lupowitz (keyboards/vocals), & the punchy horn section of Alec Staples (saxophone) and Amanda's husband, Bob McMahon (trumpet).
Since its founding in 2009, Thru Spectrums has evolved from a stripped-down 4-piece to its current formidable incarnation, playing gig after gig across the state. The fruits of the family band's labors manifested in May 2017, with the release of their 3rd album, Process.
While Thru Spectrums loves to unleash familiar numbers by Amy Winehouse, Jimi Hendrix, Fiona Apple, Bruno Mars, & other influential artists, this band emphasizes original music with twists & turns, peaks & valleys, & grooves for days. The genre-bending journey of Process will take the listener through Steely Dan-esque groove rock ("To the Daylight," "What You Say"), 1960s soul ("Juniper in Spring"), Stevie Wonder-inspired ballads ("Long Lost"), & Parliament party-funk (the nine-minute opus "Social Misfit").
Keep an eye out for Thru Spectrums bringing their unique brand of funk to a bar, park, or auditorium near you.
