The Plastic Infinity Live Band from Wilmington, NC

Purple Mind Licorice Music Based in Wilmington, NC, The Plastic Infinity is an exploration of the possibilities of sound. From the most basic blues, jazz, and rock influences to the most far reaching freeform psychedelic wanderings, they bounce off of the influences of groups like Pink Floyd and The Jimi Hendrix Experience, and weave them into their own strange blend of sound-scapes. There is a definite fusion of the movements and chord structures that make jazz so cool and complicated, with the pop sensibilities that draw you to bands like The Beatles and also, the weirdness that keeps you going back to your Doors and Pink Floyd records. This is music for the connoisseur. It drives your feet and makes you feel the power of heavy hitters like Robin Trower and then turns and gets introspective and sophisticated, like Jethro Tull or Jane's Addiction. Some of it is very heavy, but not at the expense of insulting your intelligence with teenage lyrics. It's a power trio, consisting of Drummer Adam Charles, Bassist Josh Kidd and Guitarist/Vocalist Trent Boswell. The band refers to its style as Art Rock, or better yet, a completely original moniker, 'Purple Mind Licorice Music'. Think of it as head candy. The group swings tempos and vacillates from folk, to blues-rock, to jazz, to heavy grooves, and back again. Musically daring, and committed to interesting motifs, they are not the typical 3 chord pop tune band. A portion of their repertoire is acoustic in nature and will further demonstrate their versatility. The lyrics are not plucked from the lyric tree, or wrapped in cellophane, either. Written by a poet and carefully formed, they demonstrate the integrity of the music. Often cerebral but always relatable, they crown the journey into the inner ear that is the phenomenon known as The Plastic Infinity.... You'll just have to hear for yourself.
