a viberatto ::
Acoustic-oriented, instrumental music, featuring vibraphone, cello, glockenspiel, accordion, piano, synthesizer, bass, guitar and more.
A Viberatto was formed in 2008 by multi-instrumentalist Jimmy Goodman as a group to bring to life simple acoustic musical pieces in a cinematic type style.
Primarily interested in simplicity, beauty, real instruments, chamber music and setting moods.
A Viberatto is music that many find hard to classify. We call it "Acoustic Chamber Rock"; however it is not always just acoustic, not chamber like classical and not really rock. You have to listen yourself, we figure.
Our newest music, collected in our debut CD called "A" has been influenced by music from Iceland, Americana Folk Music, Classical Music and Nature. The album release date is June 21, 2010 - the first day of summer.
Currently A Viberatto is working on a few videos and a silent movie soundtrack.....
