2005, First Flight
Entering a Contest finds The Floating City combining rhodes piano, violin and cello strings, guitars, bass, keyboards, drums, vocals, and an assortment of additional unique instrumentation to create an album of majestic guitar melodies, thundering drums, and questions raised that ask "Whose side are you on?" The results are deep in both tender sonic whisps and heartfelt poetics, juxtaposed against an angular intensity brought forth from a collective musical collaboration process. The band is motivated by their relationships, daily lives, and careful scrutiny of the sometimes fragile & volatile marriage of music, art, and business. This is their gift to themselves and to you.
