Everywhere Band

Everywhere is a mini-orchestra. It features an opera-trained vocalist doubling on Glockenspiel, as well as an orchestra- influenced style of woodwinds (Clarinet, Flute, etc) and the use of the Melodica, which sounds like a cross between Harmonica and Accordian. We perform mostly original pieces of music in efforts to take listeners on a sonic and emotional journey. Our music deals with diverse topics like the loss of childhood, reflections on self-doubt and inspiration, and the breaking of trust, among other things. While our influences range from Jazz to Pop and rock, we aim to connect to listeners of all backgrounds and ages. We've been playing all over New York for over a year, and will soon be releasing our debut EP, 'Hear and Feel'.

Most recently, the band was featured on the number one variety/talk show in Connecticut, Better Connecticut.

The full group features: Joshua Kwassman: Saxophone, Clarinet, Flute, Melodica Arielle Feinman: Voice, Glockenspiel Michael Valeanu: Guitar Adam Kromelow: Piano Peter Yuskauskas: Acoustic Bass Roderigo Recabarren: Drums

This turns out to be a ...
