Catpeople - “Alone”El Ten Eleven: This group is awesome! Their full sound derives from only a two-member band. The lead guitarist, Kristian Dunn, strums a guitar with two necks and simultaneously plays the bass and lead! The band inquires the use of recorders while live to repeat the tune they played prior allowing them to build on that sound. No need for extra band members! It’s hard to describe. Watch the video below to see how they improvise. They are much more amazing to see than hear even though the following two songs are just amazing. Drummer: Tim Fogarty.
