“Zero Context is music that depends on the situation,” Michael Bryant, who plays synth in the band, told Creative Loafing Tampa Bay about the collective of instrumentalists he regularly brings together at Dunedin Brewery.
One gig last March included James Adkins and Jamie Newitt on drums, bassists Brad Miller and Vinny Svoboda, plus Austin Llewelyn on keys. The end of the performance was built around a drum and bass idea, colored with texture inspired by U.K. musician Squarepusher, then topped off with hip-hop and punk moments for a genre-fluid performance that embodied the spirit of experimental music.
The band’s 2024 EP, Out Of Nowhere, does have vocals on it but still bottles all of that energy into a compact statement of what Zero Context tries to do every time it hits the stage.
There's no cover to see Zero Context play Dunedin Brewery’s “Musical Riot” show in support of the city’s nightlife next Thursday, Aug. 1. See a list of the best Tampa Bay instrumental bands you can listen to right now.
