Rich O'Donnell
drummer/electric dreamer
The real bio by Ryan Harris
Rich O'Donnell is some type of highly evolved freshwater
arachnid, octopod, or squid-like creature from Donegal,
Ireland. We're actually not 100% certain. Through years of
dedicated practice, he's trained his gelatinous tentacles to
accelerate/decelerate and sabotage boring rhythms created
with integer ratios, transforming them into fluid, unpredictable,
and interesting layers of expression. In addition, he’s part
cyborg, and creates music by manipulating the KYMA
(a special organ located next to the spleen that’s hardwired
into the central nervous system allowing his brain to
simultaneously process any number of “n” control voltages at a
given time). Modern science is exploring possible explanations
to these phenomena.
