Squid Fighter has created an enormous catalog of original music since its first jam session in the spring of 2008. Their debut CD "Songs, Themes & Jams" is now available from Amazon.com, CDBaby.com, and at shows.

Squid Fighter songs encompass and often fuse or transcend various genres, including rock, reggae, funk, country, psychedelia, and jazz. They love to jam, but more often they are simply singing their songs to you.

Interestingly, Squid Fighter's lyrics were all found, by the band members, on wind-polished stone tablets at the bottom of an ancient Martian riverbed.

The band's influences range from Bob Dylan to Led Zeppelin, but their sound may most closely resemble Pink Floyd teaming up with The Police to cover Beatles tunes, after listening to Phish bootlegs all day.

The trio hails from Warwick, New York, and features J. Friedman on keyboards and vocals, Theo Michelfeld on guitar and vocals, and Gavin Caruthers on drums.

Squid Fighter also safeguards the galaxy against robot squid invasion. You're welcome.
