True to their name, Spoke draws strength and integrity from the point where its members unite. The formative philosophy for Spoke lies in bringing together musicians distinguished not merely but their virtuosity, but by a unique primary emphasis on composition and group interplay. Years of performing together has allowed the ideals to find expression in a band that seems to always anticipate each other’s thoughts and trajectories. With their debut release, Spoke has created a truly post-modern yet beautifully melodic album incorporating diverse influences from 1960s free-bop, contemporary classical, funk and even Chinese pop music. Paul Blair from Hot House Magazine gives special praise to Spoke’s debut calling it ‘one of the most inventive records I’ve heard all year.'
