Point Juncture, WA

Point Juncture, WA, is a five-piece band based in scenic Portland, Oregon. The five pieces are called Victor, Amanda, Jesse, Wilson, and Skyler. Mixing in a little prog, a little emo, this insanely creative, slightly dissonant mathy rock outfit has a way of drawing you deeper into their emotional landscape with each song. Point Juncture, WA has nailed that three-dimensional mastery where layers upon layers slip between each other, breathing in and out with the utmost elegance and meaning. Starting off with dub-inspired beats, bringing in tastefully economic guitar, reverberating vibraphone and poignant keyboards, then tilting the angle with their consistently mind-blowing vocals (both guy and girl), this gang is making Portland most proud. All details aside, the overall impression is one of sincere, genuine music-making; these four guys and a girl put their hearts into every sound, every silence and every breath, reminding us that the magic of music happens in the subtleties and the vulnerabilities. We shall say one more thing. The place—Point Juncture, Washington—isn't real. The band is the place. The band is real. http://www.myspace.com/ptjuncturewa
