Meet the Texas weirdo mixing kraftwerk with Doug Sahm to create 'kraut-country.'
People Are Beautiful. He sings with a traditional country inflection about topics like spiritual visitations and social unrest. Fat, hollow-bodied guitar chords butt up against manipulated percussion. A member of NASA Country plays modular synthesizer, turning knobs and fiddling with patch cables to create one-of-a-kind tonal effects.
It started when Capps first met San Antonio sound artist Justin Boyd, the guy who stoically stands at the synth at every NASA Country concert. It’s a modular synth rig, to be specific, with an emphasis on the analog. “In layman’s terms, I call it a glorified human guitar pedal,” Capps says. “The modular synths are very complicated, and there’s wires everywhere and every little filter and knob has an output and an input. But Justin is a whiz. He’s the Brian Eno of the band.
