The Once Bitten Band stands as a harmonious testament to the power of collaboration between newfound friends, united by a shared passion for the diverse tapestry of music that has shaped their lives. With deep reverence for the rhythmic storytelling of traditional blues and an unyielding curiosity to explore the ever-evolving world of classic rock, our sound emerges as a multifaceted fusion of these genres and everything in between.
At the very core of our musical identity lies a unique rhythm section that defies convention. We intertwine the driving force of acoustic drums with the vibrant and hypnotic sounds of African percussion, blending in compelling influences from the realms of Latin and Haitian rhythms. It is in this creative marriage of diverse beats that our sound finds its pulsating heartbeat, offering a captivating experience to all who lend us their ears.
Drawing inspiration from legendary bands from the Allman Brothers to ZZ Top, Robert Johnson to Gary Clark Jr., Santana to R.E.M, we strive to do justice to the art of storytelling through our music. Through lyrics and melodies, we embark on a voyage that transcends the realm of ordinary, providing our listeners with a vivid and immersive narrative that evokes a range of emotions. The stories we tell are diverse, some are old and some are new. They are woven delicately into the fabric of our songs, fueled by a desire to connect with our audience on a deeper, more soulful level.
But it is the guitar that serves as the enchanting voice of our melodies, often taking center stage to deliver intricate and tasteful solos. With skilled hands that navigate the fretboard and hearts that pour passion into every note, we weave an auditory tapestry that speaks directly to the very essence of our audience’s being. We relish in the magic of the guitar, harnessing its potential to move both our fingers and the souls of those who listen.
What sets us apart and brings us to life is the undeniable groove that cascades through the compositions. It is a groove that possesses a magnetic power, compelling our audiences to move in harmony with the rhythm. We relish in the sight of bodies swaying, feet tapping, and heads nodding to the infectious beat that emanates from the stage. It is in these moments of shared euphoria that the true essence of our music is fully realized.
Once Bitten thrives on the stories we tell, the captivating solos we deliver, and the groove that unites us all. We invite you to venture with us as we embark on an unforgettable musical journey, an exploration of melodies and rhythms that transcend time and bring people together. Embrace the fusion, feel the power, and let us take you on a sonic adventure that will leave your soul both once bitten and forever enchanted.
