I was just turned on to these guys by one of our readers .

The band consists of Adam Nash (keys/piano), Jon Joffe (guitar), Greg Halbkram (bass), and Sal Galati (drums/percussion).

If you have yet to hear of these guys you’ve gotta check out their funky jams. These guys are from Philly and are currently on tour in the northeast.

“Codename’s songs are a fusion of tightly composed, high-energy progressive-rock arrangements, complimented by jazzy harmonies and funked out dance grooves. Their show is a true experience. The soulful connection is apparent between Adam Nash (keys/piano), Jon Joffe (guitar), Greg Halbkram (bass), and Sal Galati (drums/percussion), as their chemistry both on and off the stage combines unique energy, vision, and sense of adventure that all goes into the jazz-infused blast of funk rock that is Codename. Among their influences are The Grateful Dead and Phish, Herbie Hancock, John Scofield and Medeski Martin & Wood, Pink Floyd, Yes, Soulive and The Allman Brothers.”

Make the jump to check out a few samples from their show at The Brass Lantern in Reading, PA and download the entire show. They have a great presence on The Archive.
