Bio

With a record deal in hand from progressive/experimental independent label 10t Records, shining response from press, and blossoming fan bases across the country, Boston rock band THE VITAL MIGHT continues to churn out hard-hitting music that doesn’t shy away from mixing pop rock with metal, funk with prog, and captivating songwriting with psychedelic breaks.

Singer/songwriter/guitarist Andy Milk leads the band forward with introspective yet decisive lyrics, a passionate multiple octave range, and a wall of inventive guitar.  Drummer Evan Kraker takes a page from The Mars Volta’s John Theodore with his left-of-center but grounded beats.  Rick Gauthier rounds out the three-piece with thunderous low end and and a powerful performance energy.

In September 2007, “Don’t Mind Me”, featuring Morphine’s Dana Colley on saxophone, was featured during The Young and the Restless on CBS.  

The Vital Might also has a very strong online presence including active sales on iTunes, Rhapsody, and Napster,  highly populated fan communities on MySpace, PureVolume, Twitter and Facebook, and a 2000+ member e-mail list.  A blog style web site encourages rapid updates and fan communication: http://www.thevitalmight.com.  The band used video blogs and podcasts to update fans on their albums’ progress:  http://www.youtube.com/thevitalmight.
