Future Pigeon incorporate a country-fried jangle into the classic Lee Perry thump and echo of dub, which comes out sounding fresh like a homespun experiment in bumpkin dance hall. They throw in plenty of ambience and weirdness as well.

THE FUTURE IS PIGEON

Jason Mason and Eddie Ruscha formed Future Pigeon back in 1997 as a home recording project creating lo-fi Dub reggae mixed with Psychedelic Rock, Punk and World Music influences. Early projects included recording a Dub version of Elliot Smith's "X-O" for the Elliot Smith documentary "Strange Parallel" and appearing in and recording soundtrack music for Steve Hanft's all-star cult-rock movie "Southlander (link to southlander.com)" (feat. Hank Williams III, Beck,Billy Higgins). Brittish folk diva Beth Orton sang and appeared with the band in the film. A CD was then released on Shipwrecords called "Golden State of Dub", a humorous, sometimes frightening world of extreme lo-fi dub experiments. Playing live was the next step & the group became a fierce onslaught of pyrotechnic dub when they enlisted live sound operator Tom Chasteen (link to exist dance) on the mixing board as a permanent "hidden" member. Opening for such acts as Adrian Sherwood, Lilys, etc. these shows are legendary if you ask someone from Pluto. The group has also recently done successful shows mixed live by the heavyweight champion of 80's dancehall dub, SCIENTIST and the band has been known to have up to 11 members on stage. The new album has just been completed and mixed at Soma Studios by Tom Chasteen. Much of it was improvised in the studio and the vocal side of the band is appearing on tunes like "Gift Tax" nad "Dream Dub". The years spent DJing the highly regarded L.A. Dub Club as part of the Echodelic Dub Chamber Soundsystem has strengthened the dancable element of the music as well. With it's wide range of musical influences and lack of limitations, the sound of Future Pigeon is truly unique in this time of bullshit copycat trendy acts on the market right now.
