Five billion years ago the universe experienced a ''cosmic jerk'. Before then the combined gravity of the galaxies and everything else in the cosmos was resisting the expansion, slowing it down. Since the jerk though, the universe has been speeding up. Cosmic Jerk proposes to speed you up too. The band plays a fusion of pop, soul, funk and many other styles. The fusion of styles colors the sound and groove, making a powerful and danceable combination. Most of the songs are born in the creative mind of their front man Aydin Bilis, with the rest of the band adding their own groovy touch. Cosmic Jerk are: Aydin Bilis - Guitar & Vocals Maria Castellano - Vocals Dado Kuna - Hammond & Keyboards Cosi Longo - Drums Jack Winter - Bass Jerry Schlentz - Live Sound & Photography Guest musicians: Ernie Hammes - Trumpet David Ascani - Saxophone Laurent Lemaire - Trombone
