Captain
Obvious is about six guys musically connecting to each other and to
their audience, trying to overcome stylistical limits and to reach a
state of trance and euphoria.
We
are no Jam Band in a sense of aimless noodling-around, of playing one
solo after the next, more so we try to really listen to each other and
challenge ourselves to take risks on stage at the cost of perfection.
And to just do what feels right musically. At one moment you might hear
us play an unexpected cover song or a tightly arranged 2-minute-rocker,
the next we might delve into a 15-minute Dub-Electronica-Funk Jam. You
also might hear us try spontaneous chord or rhythm changes on stage
which might work and be the coolest thing we ever did.. or also might
not. That's basically what The Captain is about. Having a fun time with
our audience, taking risks, expressing oneself musically, making
interesting music that you can move your body to. About taking it all to
the next level. And hoping you will follow us there. (as compiled on
the bands website)
