The groove heavy power trio out of Portland, Oregon blends genre bending funk with slow burning underground soul jazz. Led by keyboardist Galen Clark, Subtonic explores a coalescence of rock, soul, funk, hip hop and jazz that simul- taneously draws in listeners and pushes boundaries. Creating a sonic footprint reserved for more than just three people, Subtonic delivers soulful grooves, expansive improvisations and a deep pocket that compels audiences to try dance moves they didn’t know they had. Trio Subtonic consists of Galen Clark on keyboards, Bill Athens on bass and Russ Kleiner on drums. The group has performed with Dan Balmer, A Love Electric, JFJO, Scott Pemberton, D’Vonne Lewis, Michal Angela and more. Tour- ing extensively on the West Coast, East Coast and in Mexico, Subtonic brings dynamic energy to festivals, jazz clubs and watering holes alike and has garnered admiration from a wide variety of fans and critics. The listener will find funky, groove-oriented sounds, acoustic ballads, and gospel-tinged instru men tals. Trio Subtonic’s “populist” take on Jazz means that just about everybody digs what they’re doing. –Matt Fleeger, KMHD Radio No secret to Northwest jazz aficionados, Trio Subtonic operate within simulta- neously soulful and funk-heavy arrangements. Hig lighted by the daz zling keywork of Galen Clark, the trio is a verit ble monster hybrid of jazz fusion. –PDX Pop Now. Friday, May 20 at KALA, doors open 8pm. Music 8:30pm. $8 cover. 21+ please.
