VESSTAYears together: 2
Origin of band/artist: With swank sophistication and an unshakable cool, throaty alto, the waif-like singer/songwriter (and quintessencial "bad girl") Taylor Marks fronts a powerhouse groove section led by drummer Jimmy Musto and his counterpart, bass guitarist Derek Frank.
Historically (and poetically), the saucy chanteuse, Taylor Marks and her drummer, Jimmy Musto fell in love at first sight on a hot July night in 2000 and the moody, late night funk/jazz/alterna-pop band VESSTA was born before the sun came up the following morning. Two weeks after their introduction, Marks moved into Musto’s Topanga Canyon, CA home and six months later, just before midnight in the dead of winter (wearing UGG boots and lingerie), the musical match made in heaven exchanged vows in their living room.
At first, recording sessions were limited to a dank basement and an 8-track until a muddy cassette tape demo fell within earshot of an independent investor in December 2000 and their obsolete basement was transformed into a multi-track recording studio called The Dungeon. By New Years 2001, production of VESSTA’s debut CD was in full swing.
"There isn't anything sweeter than late, late night in The Dungeon with a bottle of wine, a cigarette and Neumann in my face," Marks says with a cool indifference that almost seems contrary. "The Dungeon is like VESSTA's fifth band member - all of our music happens in that room under pretty decadent conditions and it bleeds straight through to tape."
Currently, VESSTA is in the studio wrapping up the independent production of their forthcoming debut CD. Mixdown will be engineered by mixer/producer Billy Moss (Stevie Nicks, Gin Blossoms), owner of Vintage Recorders, at his newly built studio in Sedona, AZ (summer/fall 2002).
Philosophy: Music is that place between soft comfort and total insanity. To 'sing' life, its experience would have to be pretty bold for the music that comes of it to hold an audience's attention. So as a songwriter, vocalist and musician, my own life has to be rich with virtue as well as vice - and I, personally, don't believe that I should have to hide either polarity.
Future plans and goals: VESSTA will be performing in Los Angeles regularly by the end of November 2002.
