The G-Nome Project Is Coming To America! – The Giving Tour
The G-Nome Project, Israel’s premier livetronica band, is finally coming to America for their “The Giving Tour.” The G-Nome Project just might be the best livetronica band you’ve never heard of before. Starting in New York City, the band will hit Philadelphia, Colorado, Michigan and Ohio before hightailing it back to NY and New England to round out the tour in late September.
Since late 2012, mostly jewish jamsters have returned from their trips to the Holy Land with tales of wonder and amazement, and sometimes a hastily shot video, not of the ancient culture or monuments but of a local band that really puts the Live in Livetronica. Discovering anyone who knows jam music, and even finding fervent fans of The Disco Biscuits and The New Deal outside of the US is usually an exciting event. True to form, excitement among fans who only know who The G-Nome Project by reputation, but have never actually seen the band perform, is palpable. This word of mouth reputation and excitement surrounding the band’s arrival in the states is all about the band’s jam prowess and dance ready melodies. Just take a listen for yourself. Below you will find a steller SoundCloud recording of the band, bio information about the bands roots, a video of a live performance and information on tour dates/tickets and more!
Band Bio
Formed in September 2012, G-Nome Project is rapidly building one of the most loyal fan bases in the country, packing venues to capacity in their home city, Jerusalem, and expanding rapidly to the heart of the artistic scene in Israel’s center in greater Tel Aviv. Building on a solid foundation of experiential performance, G-Nome Project friggin’ brings it at every show and people are quickly taking notice. From late night trance festivals in the forest to grooving out with hundreds of fans on the rooftops of Mamilla in Jerusalem, G-Nome Project has become one of the leading bands of choice for festivals in Israel. Building on their national success in the Middle East, the band is currently organizing its first international tour across the U.S. in August 2014.
G-Nome Project is comprised of a super group of four nationally renowned musicians – Yakir Hyman, Zechariah Reich, Chemy Soibelman, and Eyal Salomon – who each bring a distinctive flavor to the dynamic electro-funk palate of this Jerusalem-based quartet. All four members immigrated to Israel from the United States in their 20’s and met by chance through strangers in the street. A Disco Biscuits hat led the way to a conversation, introduction, and an impromptu jam session that set the course for the formation of the band. G-Nome Project is the product of their longstanding musical vision to form an ensemble focused heavily on improvisation while blending elements of electronica, dance, and funk into progressive original compositions – a style that has been coined “Grilled Cheese Funk at its finest.” Fans of many colors flock to the band’s shows for the music, good vibes, and hardcore dancing that exemplify the character of the G-Nome community.
