THE JEWELS with THE TORY Z. STARBUCK PROJECT December 21, 2012

"The Jewels play jazz-- sexy-gritty-smooth-funky-fresh-tasteful-grooving-sensual-progressive original and throwback jazz. The Jewels are a refreshing reminder that music is diverse, and can be danced to...from shredding fusion/free-jazz-style horns...to classic and smooth flute-driven jazz stylings."

+++++++++++++++++++The Tory Starbuck Project's discography runs the gamut from otherworldly space jazz/funk to middle-eastern psychedelica to chilling darkwave and more.

Venus Slick- Viaggio(theremin/synthesizer/radio), synthesizer, windjammer, electronics. Bruce McLaughlin- electronic/acoustic drums/percussion. Dr. Alphonse Caspar Mabuse- bass, fretless bass.
