Art experience

Art Experience:

Initial Response: For this assignment, I went to local bar Max’s tavern and listened to a band called “Green is for go”.  The first thing that strikes me is the eclectic sound the band has with a banjo player and violin artist.  They have kind of a bluegrass sound, with a little bit of a rock sound with the vocals. The two of them seem like very laid back guys by the way they are dressed, and the music is mostly upbeat, but not overly intense. They seem like a fun band full of artists that are looking to have fun more than anything else.

Reflection:

After researching the band on the internet, their Myspace page reveals that the two of them are definitely aiming for humor while still producing music that is enjoyable to listen to. They claim to take pride in “rocking people’s socks off with nothing but acoustic instruments”, which is a cool idea and it makes them fun to watch. I think m original assessment of them is pretty right on now that I’ve gotten to look at their webpage and get a better feel for what they are all about.
