Instrumental alt-rock song with heavy funk, soul & psychedelic influences.  The drums drive and propel the song forward while the Rhodes organ takes a more tranquil path to give the song it's juxtaposed groove and vibe.  The layered guitars provide the tonality, tension and soundscape that weave in and out of the rhythm and melodies alike.

Den of the Empress

Amidst the lush Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, The Sleeping Cliffs unleash powerful soundscapes with amplifier feedback and pulsing bass drums. The music is a layered mosaic of fuzz drenched guitars, bombastic percussion, and vintage synths, melodically engineered as a turbine of soulful, rhythmic, electro-rock.  Todd Glidewell, the multi-instrumentalist behind the project, describes himself as “genre-fluid”, drawing from rock, indietronica, funk, soul, psychedelia, post-rock, and alternative. Wearing those diverse influences like a technicolor cape, his tracks consistently showcase a distinctive analog/electronic groove that defines The Sleeping Cliffs’ signature sound.
