NJ/PA rockers Chemical Imbalance take the electric sounds of funk, modern rock, emo, punk, & ska and blend it all into a whirlwind of creative, inventive songs that feature a wealth of new and diverse talent. Chemical Imbalance are: JG Flegler - lead vocals, acoustic guitar; Mike Burns - lead bass, alto sax, backing vocals; Tony Donoso - bass; Greg Marcus - guitar; Chris Gajewski - drums. JG is from Edison, NJ and his main influence is Faith No More. Mike is from Easton, PA and his main influence is The Red Hot Chili Peppers. Tony is from Fords, NJ and his main influence is The Smashing Pumpkins. Greg is also from Fords, NJ and his main influence is Sublime. Chris is from Bayonne, NJ and his main influence is from Tool. Fusing together musicians from different areas with so many different musical backgrounds and influences creates a very interesting result. C.i.'s newest line-up formed late August 2002 after Mike discovered an ad that JG posted on a website that focused on the NJ music scene. JG's audition with Mike and Chris was like a non-stop flow of creativity and talent. Within a few weeks, they came across the guitar/bass team of Greg and Tony, and together, the five were united and agreed to forge ahead with a band that would brush aside the "typical" 5-piece line up containing two guitarists and replace it with the smooth, unique sound of two bassists. Has it been done before? Sure. Has it ever succeeded? Not until now... "If a band can have two guitarists, why not two bassists?", asks C.i.'s lead bassist, Mike. "Besides, most guitarists, except Greg, are egomaniacs and control-freaks. I've been through dozens of them, besides bassists just have better personalities. We're cool, laid-back and have rhythm." Chemical Imbalance has often been compared to the likes of Incubus, Sublime, and The Red Hot Chili Peppers, however their sound can be best described as Beauty having sex with The Beast. Chemical Imbalance will reimburse your brain with their twisted sounds as they break into your ear hole and steal every dirty thought that you've ever had. In February 2003, they released their self-titled EP featuring six original songs recorded at Trax Underground in North Brunswick, NJ. C.i.'s CD features the songs "Naked", "Run From Me", "Save", "All I Mean", "MILF", and "Vivid Memory". Soon after the release, their music began hitting the airwaves starting with the NJ station 105.5 WDHA. C.i. is continuing the get airplay and press in the NJ/NY/PA area and they can be seen regularly playing venues in the same areas. Most recently, they have made it to the second round of The JerseyShows.com Battle of the Bands to be held on April 6 at Just Jakes in Montclair, NJ, and C.i. will be holding a CD Release party at The Rodeo-Ristra on March 23 in Hoboken, NJ. Listening to C.i.'s music will take you through an amazing journey as you travel into an electrifying world of music unlike anything you've ever experienced. With the awesome combination of lead and rhythm basses from Mike and Tony, JG's charismatic vocals, Greg's stylish guitar, Chris' flamboyant drumwork and a hint of acoustic guitar and alto sax, you will be getting the perfect flavor of the newest, freshest sound out today.
