Please meet one of Atlanta, Georgia's most talented rock and roll bands, Liquid Jungle. Primary songwriter, Josh Yoder (bass, lead vocals) and his identical twin brother, Graham (lead guitar, backing vocals) have teamed with the multi-talented Zack Varner (keyboards, rhythm guitar, saxophone, vocals) and the versatile yet powerful Jason Monseur on drums. Together, this foursome delivers energy-packed live shows throughout the South East and soon Liquid Jungle will be taking their music to the rest of the country. LJ has performed at several industry showcases including the Atlantis Music Conference and the Mid-Atlantic Music Conference.
Audiences are always on their feet, mesmerized by their powerful performances and superior musicianship but are equally drawn to the thoughtful lyrics and tight harmonies of their well-crafted original songs. Still in their early 20’s, these seasoned artists have been performing live for nearly 10 years. They have honed a phenomenal stage presence that has taken them to such prestigious venues as Smith’s Olde Bar, Center Stage and The Georgia Theater. The band members’ passion for the music combined with the excitement from their audiences, create funk-infused rock ‘n roll chaos. No two Liquid Jungle shows are ever the same.
“The first song they played really stormed out of the gate. These guys don't play around. It had a heavy funk sound with prog-rock elements and some close harmonies on the vocal. Subsequent songs were similarly angular and intense; the same goes for frontman, Josh Yoder. He's like some kind of exotic bird, hopping about onstage, slapping his bass around and bugging his eyes out. Guy can sing too. He's got a breathy tenor that's well-modulated and not too precious or overbearing.” -- Maggie Large, Amped.com, Macon GA
“The occasional major label act swings in, but generally regional and local favorites like Liquid Jungle draw in a large crowd.” (Brandyhouse, Atlanta GA) ---- Atlanta Music Magazine 2003
