Neptune's origins trace to 1994 as a sculpture project by Boston artist/musician Jason Sidney Sanford, who forged the band's haphazard guitars and reluctant drums from scrap steel and found objects. Nine lineups, multitudes of releases, and hundreds of instruments later, the band continues to wrench its sound-spatter on homemade stringed, electronic, and percussion instruments to often confounded audiences around the world. Propulsive percussion and sonorous electronics tangle with Sanford's microtonal string creations with a refined minimalism, adding a new chapter to the band's ever-evolving story. As of 2023, the lineup of Jason Sidney Sanford, Mark William Pearson & Daniel Paul Boucher (2002 - 2009), will begin anew as an active unit.
