Search - Father Divine :: The Great American Pastime

Like the city from which it hails, the music of the band Father Divine is a melting pot of diverse cultures, ideals and esthetics. Founded in New York by Joe Ferrara (aka Father Divine) in 2000, the band?s sound is a bold look into the depth and potential that music truly can have. Through the sounds of World Music, Hard Rock, late 60?s pop, Classical counterpoint, and countless other influences the elements of each song can be thought of as a sculpted menagerie layered with nuances for the listener to uncover. At times the songs are reminiscent of cinematic soundtracks, and other times more archetypical in form, but always striving toward a unique expression and outlook. With the release of The Great American Pastime, the band?s first full length CD, Father Divine has placed a premium on creating an album that is conceptually consistent not only from start to finish, but also in it?s presentation. With painstaking time and precision and almost entirely through their own resources, Father Divine hopes to establish a paradigm fortified by the power of music and sound.
