Formed in 2004 after a particularly successful jam session, Consider the Source has been releasing music and touring the globe for two decades now. Influenced by Turkish, Bulgarian, North and South Indian styles filtered through jazz, rock, and psychedelic sounds, the band\u2019s sound can only be encompassed as \u201cConsider the Source\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The group\u2019s newest release, The Stare<\/em>, is the product of a story from years prior to Consider the Source\u2019s conception. In 1992 David Prater, the producer of The Stare<\/em>, worked on the up and coming progressive rock band Dream Theater\u2019s breakthrough album- a work each of the founding members of Consider the Source<\/a> absolutely fell in love with. Years later the members had found themselves in a band of their own, and in a full circle moment as the new album became a culmination of both the band and Prater\u2019s talents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tour cut short due to the Covid-19 pandemic and spread across the country remotely, Consider the Source reached out to Prater after a chance encounter at a small local venue a few years prior that had formed the connection. Excited to return to a semblance of normalcy and routine, the band and Prater collaborated initially over Zoom before eventually road tripping to a house in which the only things to do were eat, sleep, and talk music. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Stare <\/em>captures the rare energy of the pandemic and the live artist\u2019s experience- all of the creative energy that had been bottlenecked is on full display, and it\u2019s beyond evident in each second of the tracks. It\u2019s a creative feat that defies the emotional limits of isolation, leaving everything out on the metaphorical stage- a product of the pandemic, yes, but also a work that showcases how music is inherently a magnetic force for community and togetherness in the face of uncertainty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the album\u2019s release, Consider the Source has released a pro-shot video for the final track, “Mouthbreather.” A stunning seven and a half minute performance, the band\u2019s showmanship is on full display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
