SEPTA got me there in time for the last couple songs. A couple weeks ago I went to Ortlieb's to see Heliocentric Overdrive. The band is one of frontman Tom Lugo's creations. All of his outfits are under the umbrella of his production company, Patetico Recordings. Over many years I've been to shows of his various projects, but Jan 16 at Ortlieb's looked like it drew the biggest crowd yet!
In the final song, making sure the we were all fully immersed in the music, Tom jumped down off the stage and played his guitar moving around through the audience. He increased the intensity as the audience applauded. His background in athletics and martial arts gave him the agility to do more moves than we see in others who try to do the same thing.
The music was also more tight than when I saw them last.
Here is a sample of their latest work. The song is "Loyalty and Blame", and was released over the summer :::
Heliocentric Overdrive doesn't have any other shows coming up soon, but here is the click to their Facebook page where can find out what's next ::: Heliocentric Overdrive on Facebook (CLICK HERE).
