Ambient improvisational funky jam band from Newport News, VA, Professor Marvel, has released two full length instrumental albums on iTunes and are currently finishing up their third work, "Cultures," which is an improvisational exploration of diverse genres blended with folk-like harmonies and a hint of EDM influence. They have played at a number of venues and festivals all over Virginia over the last 3 years, such as The Pink Moon Festival, Not Fade Away Festival, The Camel, Doc Taylor's, Shaka's, The Jewish Mother, The Norva, City Dogs, Hoss's Deli, and The Taphouse. The festival season on the east coast is looking promising for the Marvel crew next year and their following is continuously growing throughout VA. 

"The group, which creates colorful sonic landscapes with guitars and electronic keyboards, has released a pair of albums recorded live in the studio. "Entering the Atmosphere" arrived last year, following up on 2011's "Out on Stead Ranch. Think instrumental Pink Floyd with a dash of funk and modern keyboard textures are you're starting to get the picture." (The Daily Press, 2013)

"Everything you hear on Entering the Atmosphere is live and unedited...just basic effects on the overall mix to add color to the pictures we are painting." Nothing could better describe this brilliant space-prog rock record:it's long, filled with intricate jams that clearly exhibit amazing instrumental talent." (Roll Over Beethoven- A Review of Professor Marvel, 2012)
