If you go …

The band's members, Paul Groetzinger, Ben Wright and Brian Mayhall, effortlessly blend instrumental rock with electronica for a unique hybrid sound that is sure to be a crowd pleaser.

The band's MySpace page describes its music as follows: "The magic of D Numbers' live performances is in the real-time reorganization of analog sounds from live instruments into intricate webs of loops, samples and digital bliss.

"D Numbers creates multilayered compositions rich in texture and depth as the audience watches them bob and sway in sync; stomping on pedals and lunging for knobs and faders, all the while locked in to a solid groove. Exploring a wide range of feels and tonalities that range from melancholy ambience to aggressive rock to ecstatic funk, D Numbers takes their listeners on a sonic joyride."

The band has been touring — the west coast, the midwest, Texas and Colorado — since the release of its first CD, "Lightparade," in March 2007. With jams like Xylem Up and Atalaya, D Numbers is sure to impress.
