Bryan Ford & Goulet is the live electro-organic music collaboration between two multi-instrumentalist songwriters. They have been creating music together for more than 15 years. Drawing comparisons to Bonobo, Cinematic Orchestra, and Jazzanova, their sets are a continuous mix of original trip hop, mid-tempo and house music. Bryan switches between playing the drums and guitar. Geoff plays the Fender Rhodes and mini-Moog while simultaneously playing the bass. Percussionist/drummer Ryan Murphy (Poi Dog Pondering, MOTO, J. Davis Trio, VeeDee) frequently joins the group and adds another dynamic element to the group’s sonic repertoire.

He developed a passion for electronic music while learning digital editing and production. Goulet has worked with dozens of various regional bands in the studio as an audio engineer and acted as a producer on the artist’s albums. His remix credits include a well received drum and bass mix of Nate James’ Kingdom Falls, the title track from the 2007: URBAN MUSIC AWARDS Best Album.
