(Update: Muelle is taking a break from recording and touring following the birth of my second little one, Rowan. We'll be starting back up later in 2006) ...
Muelle (pronounced "mule") is a crossover success in the truest sense of the words. They began turning heads in 2000 by weaving their unique groove and superb improvisation into a sound that was accessible to the wide variety of crowds they encountered in central Virginia clubs and festivals. An affinity for putting their stamp on classics by artists such as the Allman Bros., Phish, Widespread, and Stevie Wonder helped them build a dedicated following in the jamband scene. They began building a large and varied list of covers with a single purpose…make people get up, dance, and take notice. But what those crowds soon began taking notice of were their original songs. With well crafted melodies, sophisticated harmony, and memorable lyrics all wrapped up in airtight grooves, it soon became clear that if this is a jamband, all the labels that go along with that term need to be updated. And now, with the release of their debut album "Falling Anyway" (June 2005), the word is getting out.
