About
Forever Einstein is an avante-garde band formed in 1989, described as a, "very smart trio," consisting of percussionist John Roulat, bassist Kevin Gerety, and guitarist Charles O'Meara, aka C.W. Vrtacek. They were a featured act at the annual MIMI festival of progressive music in France (1991) and Prog Day in North Carolina (2003). They are known for tightly weaving a variety of styles such as folk, surf-rock, jazz, metal, country and more into concise, highly arranged pieces with long, often ridiculous titles. They have been compared to King Crimson, Frank Zappa, and Gong.
