HISTORY
Trans Am has been recording as such since 1992.
PERSONNEL
Philip Manley – Electric Guitar, Electric Keyboards, DJ Mixer
Nathan Means – Electric Bass Guitar, Electric Keyboards
Sebastian Thompson – Acoustic and Electric Drums, Drum Programming
EQUIPMENT
Trans Am employs a wide variety of budget model keyboards whose demo settings and programmed rhythm patterns provide an inspirational spark for songwriting.
It is important to note that while there are some triggered rhythms, nearly all the elctric drum sounds on the records are played by Sebastian. Sebastian uses a drum module through a guitar amp in addition to his kit. Phil and Nathan switch liberally between their guitar/bass to their analog and digital keyboards.
The importance of the equipment is so great to Trans Am that they refuse to divulge actual brand names and models.
