Watch Sound Portraits

"Awesome! A total trip! Amazing! Great music!" Frank Alkyer, Publisher, DownBeat. Sound Portraits is a seamless, genre-expanding marriage of sound and vision performed with a quality never before experienced. Musicians of peerless talent Paul Wertico, David Cain, and Larry Gray take musical artistry to unchartered waters with explosive, creative improvising that is truly on the cutting edge!

Paul Wertico (acoustic & electronic drums, percussion, electronics)
Wertico has rightly been called one of the most versatile and musical drummers of our day. With seven Grammys and numerous other awards codifying his art and flair, the genius and scope displayed on "Sound Portraits" is high justification for Wertico as a "restless innovator" ... "inspired madman" ... "impressionist painter" ... and "a true legend of jazz drums." Few artists improvise with the fire and imagination pulsing through Wertico's sticks. "Sound Portraits" is the perfect showcase for his massive talent.

David Cain (red sax, vocals, iPad, synths, wind controller, words)
An acclaimed revolutionary of unbroken media and art, David Cain is a composer, vocalist, and musician jamming across "Sound Portraits'" high-wire of collaborative music, art, and visuals. Cain's musical trek dances between reality one moment and subconscious interlude the next. Cain is in a class with music's most forward-reaching innovators because of his groundbreaking explorations. A bonafide risk taker of the music canvas, Cain gives us remarkable new frontiers of improvised sound and vision.
