Cinematic, spacious and poetic, the songs of Laughingstock pull you in with layered textures and driving rhythms while celebrating the victories, defeats, and spirituality of the every day.

At the band’s core are vocalist/Chapman Stick player Alex Nahas and drummer/backing vocalist Mark Bernfield. While Nahas provides the lyric and melodic foundations for the songs, the process of developing and shaping their structure, texture, and mood is a truly collaborative one, a result of countless hours of playing together and exchanging ideas.

Laughingstock’s sound is complemented by innovative collaborations with cellist Zoe Keating, violinist Milton Cross, keyboardist Eric Glick Rieman, and producer Lee Townsend (best known for his work with Bill Frisell, Kelly Joe Phelps, John Scofield, Charlie Hunter, and Noe Venable), who have all contributed greatly to the band’s sonic scope.

On stage, the broad and unusual sounds of the Chapman Stick permit Nahas to cover a range from deep, earthy bass to shimmering highs, supporting his smooth baritone vocals. This, coupled with Bernfield’s extensive palate of percussive textures, infectious drum grooves, and soaring backing vocals allow the duo to deliver a lush and dynamic musical experience.
