Yerfdaas is a fusion trio from Atlanta, GA.  Their music is a collection of ideas pulled heavily from their backgrounds and is recommended for fans of bands as diverse as Don Caballero and D’Angelo.  Drummer and bassist, Skylar Brillante and Johnny Bakos have played in groups in Atlanta for the past 10 + years including Fuiste, the Atlanta Space Quartet and Catfish John, while guitarist, Lane Gardner, originally from Savannah, GA has played in post R&B duo raredemo and the alwaysblastin/currently defunct Trauma City.  Quest 4 Premium, their first release, is less of a quest and more of a request for the time, energy and space to pursue these ideas, continuing to hurl them at the wall.

I grew up a complete guitar/music geek. Featured in Mike Varney’s Spotlight Column in Guitar Player Magazine (August 2005). Went to Berklee College of Music in 2005 on scholarship, graduating in 2009 with a Bachelors Degree in Professional Music.Played in Boston based rock outfit RIBS from 2009-2012. In 2012 I made my exit from playing rock music into getting weird with my guitar and pedals. Enter Monochome Sweatsuit. In 2013 I won Steve Vai’s Best In Shred guitar contest for Atlanta, opening up for Vai in Chattanooga, TN. Around this time I began doing session work in Atlanta’s hip hop studio scene. Through this period two projects were formed in addition to Monochrome Sweatsuit solo Material. See Crispin Wah, Armadillo.

Compartmentalizationalists formed in 2010 to perform guitar compositions written by Atlanta-based composer Jeffrey Bützer and UK guitarist Claire Lodge.

The project was inspired by Italian films scores and experimental jazzbos such as Sonny Sharrock and Marc Ribot, but since they favor reverb, they are basically a surf band.

They have released two albums under this name, “Sutures” and “Mother’s Grey Dress.”

The current lineup is Mitch on bass, Sean on drums and Jeffrey on guitar.
