Inactive Ensembles

Obscuricon

An ad hoc ensemble originally started by Curtis Glatter. The original lineup of Jason Robinson, Al Scholl, DJ Tenshun, Justin Grinnell, Nathan Hubbard and Curtis Glatter performed several times (including Spring Reverb 05) and recorded a track for the Trummerflora Collective Rubble 2 compilation CD.
Pt. II - After Glatters exodus to Michigan and Scholls exodus to Colorado, Obscuricon reassembled with guitarist Joe Bigham and percussionist Nate Atwood for more performing, this time with a more metal sheen......one gig and recording for SKO II, and its over.....

RTO's long sorrid history will have to be recounted some other time. For now, lets speak of the quartet period - 1999-2003. Lee Elderton, Ward Baxter, Nathan Hubbard and Josh Jones for most of that time, and with Justin Grinnell taking over for Josh 2002-2003. Three CDs - promises (1999), hopes and dreams (2000) and firecliffs (2001). Several tours and more gigs than i want to remember. A good band.

Perfektomat

This source of german power was together from 2001-2004. You could check Joscha Oetz' website for more info about the group, but he doesn't have anything up...........

Lee Elderton/Nathan Hubbard

The Elderton/Hubbard Duo was a working group from 1999-2003. During this time we played in a wide variety of circumstances, from formal concerts to a series of concerts in a parking structure. The duos music is documented on the CD Lee Elderton/Nathan Hubbard (C&PMCD003).

Plexus

Kate Conklin - Nathan Hubbard - Jesse Hix - Dave Golia

The ensemble Plexus was formed in 1996. Originally, the ensemble was a large group of multiple horn players with vibraphone, guitar, bass and drums as a rhythm section. This slowly changed into a quartet of voice, vibraphone, bass and drums. We often performed as a trio with me covering vibes, congas and small percussion, especially when Dave Golia took one of his extended sojourns to various parts of the globe. Plexus played a strange combination of music, including originals, our own arrangement of standards and a few Tom Waits covers. Kate Conklin was (at that time) writing words to standards (Blue in Green, etc.) as well as adding words to my compositions (in a sense, etc.). Add this to Kates originals where she played acoustic guitar and various voice/percussion or poetry/percussion pieces and you've got an idea what we were up to. We performed mostly in coffeeshops as well as playing a few recitals for Kate. Good friends, good music.
