The drummer is Martin Valihora (from Slovakia) and the bassist is Tony Grey (from the UK, he's John McLaughlin's nephew), Hiromi went to Berklee with them both and they were her original live trio lineup. The Sonicbloom lineup added guitarist David 'Fuze' Fiuczynski, most known for the jazz rock band Screaming Headless Torsos, though he's also one of the guitar professors at Berklee and toured Italy with Stewart Copeland for a project called Gizmo in '05. The doubleneck guitar he's using here is a J. Gustavsson Fuze Blaster signature model. It has a twelve string short scale fretless neck on top and a seven string fretted where the top six strings are on a trem but the low B is a hardtail.

Hiromi is one of the most fascinating musicians I've ever seen or heard!

Glad you picked up Hiromi's performance. Thanks for the request to him! (And of course I watched your other reaction videos) May I brag? I was fortunate enough to hear this performance at this very venue! Although it doesn't show up on the video (it's a wonder it didn't show up in the lighting effects, even though I was so close!) About 100 spectators sat in a circle around the band. It was a really great performance, as you can see in this video!

Thanks for the great reaction Wave! I'm actually going to see Hiromi tomorrow with her new band SonicWonder, which is piano, drums, bass, and trumpet. Hiromi said in an interview once that if she puts "Sonic" into the name of her band then it means that the set of compositions she has written for that band involve heavy use of her synthesizer (as opposed to almost exclusively acoustic piano). Her mode of operation has been that she gets inspired to write a bunch of compositions for a particular ensemble makeup, and then handpicks her band around those compositions.

I’m going to see them in Austin on April 26.. so excited. I’ve been obsessed with her since 2011 and I needed to see her before I died.

Hiromi is certainly captivating with her playing and style - love this performance

[@Dante94]

[@powbobs]
