Album Notes

Transducer

Definition 1: A device which transforms one form of energy into another, i.e. acoustic energy into electrical energy.

Definition 2: A diverse group of rock musicians from several different generations of rock dedicated to crafting inspired and unique hard rock stylings. The group known as “Transducer” evolved from a bay area based group, “Room 3”. Originally an 80's -90's hard rock cover band. The group took on a new drummer, Jadon Figuerido, and shortly after a second guitarist, Nathan Becker. Moving away from covers, they began crafting original songs which drew equally on the diverse influences of all of it's members. To put in a nutshell TRANSDUCER's debut album "Finding Home" consists of soulful rythm guitars and hooks, screaming yet well crafted guitar leads, funky/progressive drum chops with a John Bonham style kick, a jazzy inspired bass guitar and well crafted vocals with a reminicense of Geoff Tate from Queensryche.

TRANSDUCER is:
