The Gift of Reason

Editorial Reviews

"An undiscovered gem in the San Francisco Music Scene."

About the Artist
The bay area has for many years been home to a vibrant, creative music scene. The recent sucess of local talent Third Eye Blind and Smash Mouth are proof that this may still be the case. The fact is there's been a real buzz around San Francisco and this has been bringing more musicians to the Bay Area than ever before.

Not too often do you get floored by the power and depth of a young group like Them There. The songwriting shows a maturity in theme and musicality. Singer Hillel Familant has an a range that really captures and transmits the feel of songs like "The Gift Of Reason" and "No More." Guitarist David Metzner is a whiz kid to say the least - surpassing your average shredder with harmonic breadth no jazzer could snuff at. Kevin Stevens rounds out this trio with an original style to his choice of beats. Get this one and see these guys before they hit the arenas!
