Phileas Fogg
Rooted in edgy rock, spiced with pop, and laced with a folk influence. Their multi-faceted lyrics are artistic but honest, and are complemented by an unlikely ensemble that isn't afraid to put a hammered dulcimer and flute in a rock band.

Description
Phileas Fogg is rooted in edgy rock, spiced with pop, and laced with notes of Celtic influence. A curious and unexpected composite of musical styles, with multi-faceted lyrics that are artistic but honest. The band has the layered ensemble feel of Dave Matthews, the rich harmony of Jars of Clay, and the experimental edge of Radiohead.
With a high degree of musicianship, youthful energy, and earnest lyrics, Phileas Fogg has found audiences in all ages. With recurrent themes of discovery and faith, the music particularly appeals those who can be defined as "active listeners"-- people who like to rock out to music that also has deeper, intellectual quality.
Phileas Fogg is composed of eight musicians, who play a combined total of 12 instruments (and counting). The large variety of instruments gives the band flexibility to create a specific mood for any given song; an electic guitar soars with e-bow, the hammered dulcimer and pennywhistle hearken back to Celtic roots, the drums and bass lines give a primal groove, the accordion can make you feel like you're walking the streets of Paris.
An abbreviated version of the band formed in 2001 to audition one of Phil Woodward's songs for a college arts journal... the song made the cut and recording ensued. A few others later came on to complete the ensemble, creating the band's signature sound.
