ADATISThe Funky Rock Explosion known as ADATIS was born in New York City. At it's core, is Amy Douglas, often described as the secret lovechild of Robert Plant and Chaka Khan, a stunning and sassy vocalist/pianist and composer with an astonishing 6 octave range, woke up one morning with a vision. She longed to create a group which would rock hard, groove harder and readjust the failing planet back to the "real deal." In other words, "to find the real rock stars, write some unforgettable classics, and show the world how it used to be done." What began as a funky songwriting process has now evolved into a collective. At it's nucleus are AlSheeva, a StarChild guitarist, fomerly of the band Ricanstruction, with a blazing Hendrix-like melodic lead style of playing, and the supercharged funk of Nile Rodgers, and Mark Thors on the keys, who came formerly from Phish side project The Dude of Life. Having played with Trey Anastasio and others, this man was up for a funky challenge, and in ADATIS, he surely found it. Two parts Greg Phillinganes, One part Bernie Worrell, and the other Herbie Hancock, Mr. Thors, is the mighty God of Thunder on keys that his name ensures. Rounding out the group is a collective of Funky Supastars (from the ADATIS song namesake) including Joe Todaro on second guitar, Jonathan Price on Bass and Dave "DD" Dawson on drums With guns loaded, and a brand new CD finished, they started playing out at a lightning pace. Almost as quickly, they started getting a reputation for winning over crowds at such venues as Don Hill's, Village Underground; SOB's, CB's Gallery, The Bitter End, The Stone Pony, The Joyous Lake, The Saint, and have become favorites most notably at Tobacco Road. Over the next year, they are scheduled to appear Murray's Inn, PA, Sully's Pub, CT, Amherst Brewing Company and many many other great venues. Currently, ADATIS is also being played on WVOF Radio, 88.5 FM where their single "Girlfriend" is becoming a fast favorite. Most recently, Amy Douglas, traveled to Japan for New Year's Eve 2002, and rocked Tokyo's houses, and the ADATIS CD was featured in the Month of December as a Featured Artist CD, as it is selling like hotcakes!!! ADATIS's song "Iced Coffee" has most recently reached #1 on Garageband.com's Funk/Soul Charts.
