Strange String
Nu-Prog rock band based in Jacksonville.
Strange String, an innovative and genre-blending band, explores the boundaries of rock, folk, and jazz. Through a weave of intricate harmonies and elaborate musical structures, this Jacksonville-based group transcends conventional genres to create their own flavor of 1970s progressive rock.
Strange String creates highly sophisticated layers of symphonic sounds with experimental elements. They take listeners on a seamless journey through a complex musical landscape through timing, key signature, and mood changes. These transitions through the grandeur of rock, the charm of folk music, and the syncopated stylings of jazz create a sense of depth and intellectual engagement for listeners.
Though the subgenres of progressive rock are nuanced, listeners will recognize familiar tones and sonic tropes in Strange String's music. Classified as Nu-Prog, their sound is reminiscent of early prog-rock pioneers, such as Yes and Pink Floyd.
