Biography: The Deluge is a California-based band founded in 2005 by Andrew McKee (guitar) and Matthew O'Rane (viola), and includes brothers Grant and Shane Jordan (drums and bass, respectively). Aside from occasional wordless vocals, The Deluge are an instrumental group that blends elements of progressive rock, jazz, world, classical, and electronic music. The debut of their eponymous EP in 2007 was well received, having been performed in jazz clubs, music festivals, and countless college campuses in and around California. In 2008, they were voted "Best Instrumental Act" by music/art magazine Inland Empire Weekly. Encouraged by that success, they began working on their first full-length release in late 2008 and throughout 2009. In March/April 2010, they released "Inverted Earth" -- a studio album that revolves around the concept of a Biblical-scale flood set in modern times. Andrew Mckee, Matthew O'Rane, and Grant Jordan wrote all the compositions. Fans of Asturias, Azigza, Jean-Luc Ponty, Al Di Meola should give them a listen.
