Supercool

SuperCool is a band with an incredible story, and the musical goods to back it up.

Jeffrey (bass and vocals) was born with no arms or hands, and has an amazing self taught bass technique which has to be seen to be believed. Jeffrey jokes about obviously not being enthusiastic about sports as a kid, thus leaving music as a pursuit. He has had to figure out how to play the bass without any possibility of learning his instrument by seeing how others do it. Not only is he a soulful bass player, delivering dynamic and passionate bass lines, but is able to do this while while singing lead and playing harmonica.

Daniel (guitar and vocals) has honed his guitar skills at Berklee College of Music, and through touring during his years in Europe. Daniel provides Jeffrey with a special friendship and a creative relationship.

Part of their intriguing story is that these Americans met in Prague, Czech republic.

Jeffrey one day pulled out a map at home in Denver Colorado, after friends had encouraged him to travel. He closed his eyes and randomly pointed his toe at it. By chance his toe landed on Prague. In two days Jeffrey was in Prague, where he was later to meet Daniel. After finding each other, they have been an inspiration to each other as songwriting partners. At first collaboration, they both fell immediately in love with the sound they created together. Despite the apparent randomness of their hooking up, they have found a solid musical partnership. As roommates they were able to share and unite emotions and experiences and turn them into songs. Jeffrey mentions an example: “when you are dealing with Czech women, you never run out of love songs”. The song ‘whenannawasencagedbythemenwhoownthezoo’ is one of these. This and other hypnotic and emotional songs can be heard on their debut album. The CD is now out and available on Earwave Records. All songs written by Daniel and Jeffrey.
