About Galaxy of Tar

Galaxy Of Tar is an incredible band that successfully blends the intricacy of progressive rock and the dark melodic over tones of trip hop bands like Bjork and Portishead with Pop music format to create an accessible yet emotionally moving landscape of sound. Elias and Naima met in Brooklyn, NY and formed Galaxy Of Tar soon after developing a very deep friendship with one another. Upon meeting they learned they both loved the same kind of music and both connected with the feelings that music evoked from the listener. They formed Galaxy Of Tar with the intention of recreating that emotional release based on great musicianship and new, interesting progressive writing styles. They wanted to manipulate musical structure and create dark harmonies that conjure deep human emotional escape and release. Elias building the rhythmic architecture, Naima the esoteric, sultry, and catchy melodies, the two create a landscape of sound that takes fans on a journey towards abandonment in the Galaxy Of Tar. Though musically intricate, the duo's writing style has a foundation in pop format that creates an accessibility to their music. Galaxy Of Tar released their first EP "Pneuma" in Brooklyn in 2010 then touring at indie festivals that included Sub Rosa in Connecticut opening for Earl Greyhound and Afro-Punk opening for Bad Brains and Janelle Monae. In 2011 they took a trip to Los Angeles inspired by close friends to visit the natural beauty of California. Elias and Naima fell in love with the grandeur of the red sands of the dessert and the deep vastness of the oceanic shore lines. It inspired them to relocate to Los Angeles. After visiting to the desert many times, the duo were truly inspired to write new music. They wanted to write new music that reflected their experiences, daydreams and mirages of the desert. The result was their new EP "BARRETA", recorded with long time friend Alex Walker on Bass and Guitars and released in February 2013. What you hear in "BARRETA" is a blend of guttural guitar and bass riffs blended with rhythmic intricacy and dark moving melodies that tell the stories inspired by the desert and the mountains of the west coast. What you hear is the journey we take towards the center of our souls when we want to escape and abandon what is familiar for a visceral moving experience.
