Max Kutner
,
Eric Klerks
and
Andrew Niven
, virtuosos all, were all also schooled in playful virtuosity, sprung rhythms, and no-holds-barred experimentation while playing in one or both of two of the great legacy bands of progressive music:
The Grandmothers of Invention
, who specialize in the reinvention of the Frank Zappa/Mothers of Invention repertoire, and
The Magic Band
, John “Drumbo” French’s uncannily inspired tribute to the music of his mentor and monster, Don “Captain Beefheart” Van Vliet.
“That’s how we kind of came together. We all sort of crossed paths in Australia for the first time in 2014 when there was a joint tour with the Magic Band and the Grandmothers,” Kutner says. “And, you know, we were all like ‘This is great, but we need to do our own thing.’ We can’t just play in legacy bands; we have to pay homage to the things we like by making our own stuff.”
There is another legacy link here in the presence of co-producer, keyboardist, and guitarist
Mike Keneally
, who was Zappa’s “stunt soloist” during the late 1980s, as well as a great composer and songwriter in his own right.
“I knew Mike, because we’d premiered one of his orchestral pieces in L.A. in 2011, and I’ve been in close with him ever since,” Kutner says. “And I figured that if there was anybody who would get all of the different references—the reference points for what we’re trying to do—and kick us in the ass to make sure that we were tighter in doing it, it would be Mike.
With Keneally on board as musical guest, band counselor, technical supervisor, and ultimate aesthetic arbiter,
Android Trio
has made the album they really wanted to make—and Kutner stresses that
Other Worlds
is an album, in the best and most old-school possible way.
Ironically, the global pandemic that left the trio unable to meet in the flesh for more than a year also allowed them to make a record that blends grand statements with rhythmic complexity. “Because we weren’t limited by studio costs and all that, we just went hog-wild on overdubs,” the guitarist explains. “So we were able to make an album to a level of excess that’s more like the things we grew up listening to. Kind of like Gentle Giant, or Genesis: this huge sound.”
