U.S. post-rock band Balmorhea, a six-piece minimalist instrumental ensemble from Austin, Texas, will give a show Wednesday at On Stage bar.

    Formed in 2006 by Rob Lowe and Michael Muller, Balmorhea was influenced by William Ackerman, The Six Parts Seven, Tortoise, Rachel’s, Gillian Welch, Max Richter, Arvo Part and John Cage.

    The band self-released their first album “Balmorhea” in April 2007 and their second album “Rivers Arms” in February 2008. They also released a limited EP in the fall of 2008. The group released their third full-length album, “All Is Wild, All Is Silent” on Western Vinyl Records. Their fourth full-length album “Constellations” was released in February 2010 on Western Vinyl, and their fifth album “Stranger” was released in October 2012.
