The TUBA

The TUBA? You ask...

Usually stuck in the back of the band, the back of the orchestra.... nothing to play but flatulent oompahs....

Well... LIBERATION of the Tuba is upon us.

Why????????

It is the presence, the feeling, the vibration, the power, the SIZE...?

But it is not just the horn, it is the SOUND and the philosophy.

It's about finding new combinations and new foundations... the possibilities are absolutely endless, only limited by our imagination... NOT by our academic expectations, preconceived notions, or traditions.

Spread the WORD.

Support anything tuba... A N Y T H I N G.

Have YOU been yearning for the sonic foundry of BIG PHAT brass??

I hope so.

Gearhead info:
Joe performs most things on a vintage laquerless Mirafone 186 4U CC with a Conn Helleberg 7B mouthpiece.

The live amplification setup is through a proprietary embedded pickup, preamp in the tuba and various effects, depending on the band.
