Dave Hammer's Power Supply ~ Jazz infused progressive blues Hailing from a city known for it’s blues/rock cred, DHPS sounds something like The Black Keys meets The Red Hot Chili Peppers on a jazz school acid trip. Which isn’t surprising, considering it’s the brainchild of two young, forward-thinking, jazz school musicians with a blues/rock bent. Hammer and bassist, Matt DeRubertis twist the genre to feed their sophisticated tastes and talents, weaving together an analog mashup of styles and influences. “Vintage rock, roots and blues are firmly established genres, but we’re taking those sounds to different places by tweaking them with other styles of music we like,” says DeRubertis. The pair met in a Jazz Guitar Theory class at The University of Akron. Self-pronounced outcasts of the unofficial club of “Jazz-heads,” they formed an instant connection, found their drummer Chris Baker and started playing.
