Jabarvy, meaning 'chosen family', is a “new breed of accessible popular music with a progressive twist”. From epic soundscapes to melded medleys, they reward any listener seeking sophisticated and surprising music.
All members of Jabarvy met in Lubbock, Texas as high-school band mates in the late '90s and moved to Austin to pursue music professionally in the Music Capitol. In 2005, Jabarvy was voted one of the ‘Top Ten Jam Bands’ by music lovers in the annual Austin Chronicle Music Poll. This year, ‘M-Squad’ (Meg and Margaret, the Jabarvy horn section) was voted into the Music Poll's ‘Top Ten Horn Sections’.
Jabarvy features two diverse lead guitarists, an all-female horn section, a lead-singing drummer, and one of the most distinctive bass players anywhere. All members write music, sing, improvise solos, play various other instruments, and assume the role of front man/woman on any given night. With a penchant for making each show sui generis, Jabarvy explores a wide array of original pieces composed of light-hearted but thoughtful lyrics sung over elaborate chord progressions.
Jabarvy—a sound as unique as the name.

Creative rhythms and refreshing lyrics,that keep you moving.
author: Winston Whitt
The song Marcia Martian, a song on their first almum, Jabarvy reflects their Austin, Texas roots with its tounch of the old Austin "Cosmic" music scene. Jabarvy has combined imanginative lyric with highly creative rhythms that run throughout this, their first albumn.
Jabarvy, both the albumn and the group, may be a product of the Ausiin music scene, but their unique, melodidic combination of rock and jazz forces one into at least tapping their feet to the lively sound. With far reaching, ever changing time signatures, tight harmonies, and with melodies that you can acutually hum to yourself, they are poised to make their move onto the national music scene.

This C.D. is awesome-fresh and sophisticated Jam music!
author: Barbara Narayan
This CD has new, fresh and interesting selections from a variety of genres. I especially like "Sweetness in the Sunshine" with a Bluegrass flavor. The uniqueness of "Marsha Martian" and "Sheets...",is fun. "Climbing to the Sparrows" is beautiful, as is "Sweet Girl Leaving for the North Country". This is a great album from a great group!!- Different and fresh,and fantastic musicians!
