Totally unique progressive rock space funk jazz fusion... siriusly self-deprecatingly genre-bending, heavy and unforgetable.

notes

"As well as his dynamic interludes on tenor saxaphone, Todd Barbee adds dramtic synthesizer textures to the atmospheric grooves of "Neural Pulse", "Moveable Feast", "Alien Space Journey", and "Road to the Desert." Ranging from the eastern motif of "Bhairava" to the exotic feedback slide guitar of the atmospheric "Ghost Catcher Box", the inventive scope of Sirius Matter indicates why Smokin' Granny is one of the more inventive fusion projects of 1999... highly recommended."
David Lewis, Cadence Magazine, January 2000.

"Oozing musicianship and graced with just a touch of self-deprecating humor, Smokin' Granny's Sirius Matter is one of the most enjoyable prog/jazz hybrid albums I've ever encountered."
James Bickers, Sea of Tranquility, Winter 2000.

"Sirius Matter is one smokin' CD debut that certainly ranks among the year's best."
Peter Thelen, Expose', 1999.

"Smokin' Granny is an interesting blend of complex, but accessible music. There is some Zappa influence, and maybe some of the technical, fun spirited jamming style of Phish, but Smokin' Granny defintiely have developed a sound that is original and powerful."
Jay Piccirillo, Bass Frontiers, August 2000.
