VAST

Musical Group

VAST is primarily the project of American musician Jon Crosby, presented as a one-man band that blends melodic rock, industrial influences, ambient textures and samples of chants with intimate songwriting.

Debut album Visual Audio Sensory Theater dates to 1998. Music For People involved producers Alan Moulder and David Botrill. The album Nude was compiled from material originally released online as Turquoise and Crimson; Turquoise & Crimson were published in full in 2006.

VAST is presented in the reviews as Jon Crosby's one-man band, notable for strong melodies, industrial and ambient textures, and the use of chant samples. Key albums discussed include Visual Audio Sensory Theater (debut), Music for People, Turquoise & Crimson, Nude and April. The reviews praise Crosby's voice, compositional range and production quality.

For:Listeners of melodic alternative rock who appreciate industrial and ambient textures, melancholic songwriting, and acoustic singer-songwriter moments.

 "VAST" is an acronym that stands for Visual Audio Sensory Theater, "The audio/visual sensory theater," referring to a vision of music as a multimedia art that, through images and sounds, evokes in the listener's mind new images or those from one's past.
