Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use Australian English Шаблон:Infobox musical artist AtmaSphere is an Australian jazz ensemble formed and led by drummer David Jones.
History
AtmaShere was founded by Jones in Sydney in 1991, with Daryl Pratt (vibraphone and effects), Adam Armstrong (electric and acoustic bass) and Dev Gopalasamy as founding members. The ensemble's music initially focused on polyrhythms, but later Carmen Warrington joined to add the spoken word.[1]
The band played at jazz festivals as well as clubs in Sydney such as the Harbourside Brasserie, the Basement, and Strawberry Hills Hotel. They also presented a series of concerts titled "Lyrical Jumpcut" at the Pilgrim Theatre, featuring jazz pianist Roger Frampton and with Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Yusef Komunyakaa in a guest performance. Steve Hunter filled in for Armstrong, who was abroad, for these concerts.[1]
The group was nominated for the ARIA Award for Best Jazz Album in 1994 for their album Flying. Flying was released in 1993 and included guest appearances from Mike Nock and Don Burrows.[2]
The band opened the original JazzLab in Bennetts Lane in Melbourne in 2000,[3] in 2000, with Evripides Evripidou on bass, as Armstrong had permanently relocated to New York City.[1]
The group disbanded after 2000, after Jones and Warrington had moved back to Melbourne. Jones later wrote that his time with the ensemble was "one of the most creative periods of my career".[1]
