Naked Singularity

Here’s our latest original tune. We used a Gretsch resonator on it and we’re really happy with the result. Enjoy!

Come watch Naked Singularity play three sets of music with songs from the 60s-00s, both hits and deep cuts, plus a few originals!

We’re a rock band from the Washington, DC area – we also all happen to work at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center. We run the gamut professionally from earth to space science.

Despite our band name and our pedigrees, our music is not overtly geeky. It’s actually very 60s and classic rock inspired. We released our first album, “Last Call”, in 2013. We’re currently working on our second one – working title, “Sophomore Slump.” ;)) Actual title is likely to be “Traveling Ground.”

We spent much of the 2000s gigging, and then once band members were working on a flight project, much more time in the studio, channeling the Beatles, post-1966.

As you might guess, the Beatles are one of our biggest influences. We’re also a fan (collectively) of bands and artists like Creedence Clearwater Revival, The Byrds, Carbon Leaf, Kjetil Linnes, The LSB Experience, The Grateful Dead (no, we’re not a jam band, though our drummer moonlighted in a Dead cover band), Fleetwood Mac, R.E.M., Tom Petty, and Nirvana.

Please feel free to stream our music for free from the website. We have a couple of playlists embedded on our Music page.

This one is written by Kevin, sung by Maggie, and features some instrumentation we’ve never tried before. Rachel Spicknall Mulford plays the cello (and appears courtesy of Dr. Dour and Peach.), and Joe plays the banjo. The song has special meaning for us as well, which I think you’ll understand if you listen. It’s dedicated to the memory of Mary Phyl Simpson, and all who live life like it’s all there is.

Our friend, musician Kjetil Linnes, had a birthday this week. So we recorded our own version of one of his songs as a birthday present.

We’re very happy with how it came out. Maggie used her new Rickenbacker 360-12 and we tried a few other new tricks.

Please have a listen!
