Introducing ULTRA S! A jazz fusion band that has been stirring up the NJ music scene with their unique and captivating sounds. With musicians who are well-versed in various musical styles, including jazz, fusion, video game music, rock, etc., this eclectic group produces a vibrant concoction of styles and tones sure to delight any music lover.
The name, Ultra S, is first a shorthand for The Ultra Serenade Parts I - V, a series of exciting, post-jazz compositions, penned by Campbell. It is also an acronym for their mission statement: “Universe Less Traveled Reveals Authentic Self.” In essence, following the creative voice into the unknown is the path to making it more authentically your own. The alternate path for an artist, is to align themselves with an exterior conception of what their music should be, based largely on an adherence to music of the past. Ultra S believes the past decades of music should be used as a filter to inform their work, rather than a rulebook to dictate it. The group is renowned for its ability to create powerful emotions through their inventive improvisations. Combining technical virtuosity with creative flair, they craft melodic tapestries which paint vivid pictures in listeners' minds. Every performance is an enthralling experience. This incomparable ensemble evokes soulful depths and passionate compositions, a sound that can only be achieved by constant dedication and nonverbal communication earned by playing together regularly.
By fusing traditional jazz techniques with unexpected modern synths, world rhythms, and video game textures, they push the boundaries of jazz fusion into exciting new directions. Through every performance, The Fanny Pack captures hearts and souls everywhere. Don't miss out on this chance to be moved by masterful musicality - join the party and let ULTRA S transport you to a different dimension!
