Hundred Waters at Bluesfest

Floridian five-piece band Hundred Waters kicked off the Full Flex Express tour today at Ottawa Bluesfest with a whisper.

That’s not to say their atmospheric, electronic-tinged sound doesn’t rock; Hundred Waters’ music is simply very different from the other largely hard beat-based electronic artists playing the main stage today.

The Gainesville natives frequently utilize vocal harmonies overlapped with electrofied, at times haunting, instrumentation, which makes for a wholly original sound.

Although most of the masses may have been waiting for Tokimonsta or Skrillex, you could sense that Hundred Waters managed to convert some of the crowd, baptizing them in their progressive musical ocean.
