ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

After spending a few years playing in his brother Ed Baluyut's band, Versus, James Baluyut opted to go solo in 2001. The project was called Plus/Minus (+/-), and after a whirlwind year of writing and recording material, Baluyut released his first album, Self-Titled Long-Playing Debut Album, on Teenbeat Records in 2002.

THIS ITEM IS A PRE-ORDER AND WILL SHIP ON OR BEFORE THE OCTOBER 21ST RELEASE DATE. On their fourth album, +/- cut back on the sound bites, synthesizers, and programmed drum beats, relying instead on their own versatile musicianship - warm horn sections, classical guitar, and pedal steel guitar. Xs on Your Eyes is distinctly more calm and confident in tone and is destined to become a favorite of many.

New York City act +/- {Plus/Minus} was originally conceived in 2001 as a vehicle for the songs of Versus guitarist James Baluyut, but the act quickly evolved into a full-fledged band, with the addition of fellow Versus guitarist/vocalist Patrick Ramos and drummer Chris Deaner. This new incarnation of +/- was an entirely original construct, layering wistful pop with dynamic and complex arrangements and fusing rich, dense guitar sounds with polyrhythms drummed, strummed and programmed.

+/- (pronounced plus/minus) is the new band from Versus members and New Yorkers James Baluyut and Patrick Ramos. After working with Versus for six years, this duo have created a great new album of hard hitting melodic greatness. Last year's Versus EP, released by Insound as a tour single hinted at the superb song writing we hear with self-titled long-playing debut album. The album was recorded by James who has also produced records by Mark Robinson and Versus' hurrah, 2¢ plus tax and dead leaves. The tourin   [ read more ]

New York City's Plus/Minus arrives at its most fluid set of songs yet on the group's sophomore album, You Are Here. Guitarist James Baluyut finally has a band and Plus/Minus' sound, an atmospheric blend of guitars and electronic beats, is finally coming together. The dynamic between Baluyut, drummer Chris Deaner, and guitarist/vocalist Patrick Ramos is much more focused and direct than Baluyut and Ramos' stint with Versus. You Are Here is more or less a portrait of abstra   [ read more ]
