Alzara + Brother Spellbinder
The daughter of Dave Getz, longtime drummer for Big Brother and the Holding Co., Alzara grew up in a rock-n-roll scene, acquiring a taste for the spotlight and a love of lost souls living in the fringes between the sublime and disintegration. She formed recent group Brother Spellbinder with guitarist Jamie Wilson. Steeped in deep roots & fried in folk, guitarist, dedicated fisher & caver Wilson mixes in a dollop of gristle & a spoonful of sugar. Rotating members Harpisteri, (Erica Messer), sax/flute player Dale Carlson, bassists Jeremy Nelson, and fiddle player Cal weave you deeper into the space between haunted and enchanted.
“Alzara Getz serves as the visionary behind this amazing project which includes writing those soothing melodies and catchy lyrics. Jamie Wilson serves as the right-hand man of the project which he adds his roots music influences to this group's terrific sound. This combination creates the magic behind Spellbinder's sound fueling the Bro flow. Brother Spellbinder also adds to its cast to include a few rotating members, which include Dale Carlson, a multi-talented saxophonist/flutist/harmonica player, Harpisteri, and Cal Keaoola, a Grammy Nominated Violinist.¨
