THE SESHEN: Electro-Acoustic Music

March 2, 2012 @ 7:30 pm - 10:30 pm

$10

The Seshen Bay Area-based group is an Electropop band that draws influences from an eclectic range of artists.  Their music fuses Hip-hop, Soul, Pop and Electronica, producing an original sound that is not bound to any particular genre. Songs are created and performed by bassist/producer Aki Ehara, drummer Julian Pont, keyboardist Mahesh Rao, percussionist Mirza Kopelman and synchronizer/sampler Kumar Butler.  Driving beats laced with Afro-Caribbean percussion, thick bass lines, rich keyboards and textured electronic sampling provide the foundation for lyricists Lalin St. Juste and Akasha Orr, whose dreamy vocals create an ethereal sonic landscape.

“Soul, Funk, Indie Rock, and Reggae influences all combine to create a stand-out, Electro-pop sound that rocks the Bay Area week in and week out.”  – Kick Kick Snare

“Together, the multi-cultural crew makes ethereal sounds that transport you to a different time and space and show you just what the future of music can be.” – Soul Bounce

“Their music is a wonderful blend of foreign tastes and familiar Jazz traditions that surprise even an experienced ear.” –  The Wounded Jukebox
