Like their fabled namesake, the members of Oblio are each just a bit out of place.
Travis Vance, who was born to a family of doctors and scientists, is a philosophical bassist, a kung fu addict, a hip hop fan with an Afro.
Terry Price, the self-taught guitarist who loves his relatives’ hymns, stomps his feet and thrashes his hair onstage, but doesn’t have a guitar of his own.
And despite Mikie Martel’s knack for provisation, he has a scholarly concentration whether writing, or playing trumpet or keys, adroitly blending the art and science of musicianship.
Ben Dumas is an easy, swaggering charmer with an air of Southern aristocracy, but he becomes fierce and focused at the helm of his drums, approaching them with equal parts love and violence.
Theirs is a life on the road; a life of forward movement, changing horizons, and anticipation as the lights go up, and the day fades into night.
