Ten East

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ten East is a experimental/jam rock project based in the Palm Desert and Los Angeles area of the United States. The musicians involved share a common respect for improvised jamming mixed with years of playing and listening to all types of rock, psychedelic, latin, jazz, blues, surf and punk music. The end result is a cohesive wall of sound that is intense like Heavy, Dark, Instrumental Blues with Psychedelic and Surf overtones.

The name "Ten East" comes from the highway which leads from the heart of Los Angeles to the desert cities. The music is an expression of feelings that overcome oneself as they travel the two hours time down the length of highway, leaving behind the bustling metropolis and suburban sprawl in the wake of the mesa, mountains, and distant windmills.

The album Extraterrestrial Highway was released in October 2006 on Alone Records.
