National Ass Groovin' Association
The National Ass Groovin' Association is an assembly of asspirations asstrologically infused with a psychedelic groove. From crazyily assaulting to soothingly assuaging, the N.A.G.A. brings an asstounding assortment of dynamics, knowledge, and heart together. Assertive in their efforts of never playin the same set twice and bringing forth the madness which lurks in their minds, you can never be assured what the N.A.G.A. will play next.....?!?!!!!
Assemled together in this experiment of creation since the dawn of the year two thousand sometime. The spacement labortories could not contain the beast any longer. Life on the outside, the passion inside, the beast out of it's cage. Assimilating around the Minneapolis/St. Paul area at local Pubs, Night Clubs, What-have-yous, FMB NBC's, King's Fairs, Back yard parties, Hangs, Newpaloozas, even Live on MTN, the local cable access channel, and of course... your ear, the N.A.G.A. continues.... filling one near you.

Born on the Chequamegon Bay, located on the south shore of Lake Superior. Grew up upon the Maple Hill Drive, climbing in sandpits and on trees. Migrated southbound towards Minneapolis, years later. One day in the late 90's I was walking under a piano being lifted into a building, with a snap I was attacked by a manic with a guitar. Ever since I knew I was supposed to make music like some people are made to bake cakes or dispense urinal cakes. Joined the band Aixelsyd where I met Los a.k.a. the beast behind the beats.Let the Metamorphosis continue and you have the National Ass Groovin' Association, created in the spacement labs of 2957.
" Originally we envisioned a service for those busy professionals who have no time to use their couch, which is vital in the ass-groove building process. Those people can contact the N.A.G.A. and hand-pick their ass-groover so that their ass-groove will fit them right, for what is more assauging than an ass-groove molded for you? In the end there just didn't seem to be a market for this furniture service. Lost nights crunching numbers, trying to figure out how to make it work when, BAM! hit like a freight train to tha nuts, "let's take it too the stage". Been playing out as the N.A.G.A. since. I Enjoy playing any instrument I can gets my hands on and the overall never ending journey of learning the ways of sound manipulation."
