#46 Mythology

Published:
Guests: Brynen Sosa, Dave Lockhart, Jordan Morrissey

Listen on:

Hailing from the hills of Northern New Jersey, Mythology has been turning heads since 2007. The brainchild of bandleader/guitarist/vocalist Brynen A. Sosa, their musical perfectionism, classic progressive rock vibes, and high standard of excellence is their biggest calling card. Countless live shows and a dizzying array of recorded output has garnered them a mighty and loyal fanbase. Sosa’s modus operandi is a simple one: to create a body of work that is honest, meticulous, prolific, masterful, and full of breadth. All while maintaining a lighthearted lyrical humor to balance out the seriousness of the music!

Currently consisting of Sosa on guitar, long time drum giant Jordan Morrissey, and bass master Dave Lockhart, their chemistry can neither be bought, nor manufactured.

They cull influences from the greats of yesteryear: Yes, King Crimson, Rush, Frank Zappa, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Return To Forever, Pink Floyd, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, Soundgarden, Nine Inch Nails, The Mars Volta, Mel Torme, Tony Bennett, Nat King Cole. Their spice rack is extensive, and the soup always fuses many different flavors!

Their brand new 6th full length studio album “The Story of Sound” is a masterclass in musical confidence, finesse, and high level production. The Story of Sound, a concept album, tells the story of the man who invented music, while taking time for some zany and meta twists and turns in the narrative.

    Episode Overview

    Composer/pianist Andrew T. Miles is one whose musical style can be described in a number of ways, such as thought-provoking, introspective, head-scratching, somewhat avant-garde, and even funky at times. Since the age of 13, he has composed 70 of his own tunes, and he has no plans of stopping anytime soon. He has a long history of performing at multiple North Jersey open mic nights, but he’s also played at open mics in upstate New York and northeastern Pennsylvania, and co-headlined two concerts.

    Being an oft-misunderstood soul since early youth, Andrew’s firm commitment to authenticity and individuality shows up in multiple aspects of his life, including his music. To know his music is to know him, and his music tends to have a philosophical bent, especially with titles like “Blinded by Eyesight”, “The Internal Pendulum of Misalignment”, “The Stentorian Silence of the Privileged”, among others.
