Formed in Portland, Oregon in late 1997, 4th Plane Jaiant has attacked the international rock music scene with a relentless presence. Described as Peter Gabriel fronting Pearl Jam, this four piece is one of the best indie bands you've ever heard. They've been recognized by countless publications including Billboard Magazine (one of 1998's best unsigned bands), the Musician's Atlas (2001 Independent Award winner), Jim Beam Corp.(2001 finalists for Best Unsigned Band in the nation)...the list goes on and on. If you haven't heard of them yet, it's only a matter of time. The Jaiant is coming.

"You just have to keep exposing your music to everyone that will listen...never be satisfied with what you've accomplished.", says song writer and front-man, Chris Galyon "After years of knocking on the doors of A&R guys, they are finally inviting us in."
For 4th Plane Jaiant it has always been about the music. The focus of the group remains to push their musical innovation while maintaining accessibility to the listener. The music is melting pot of influences. Galyon (Vocals and Guitar) brings the heavier melodies and rock grooves to the songs. Wilbur (Tenor sax, Midi wind) and Kallenberger (Bass) infuse jazz and funk accents adding texture and soul to the mix. The music is energetic, introspective and intelligent. The result is modern rock with comparisons ranging from a heavy Peter Gabriel/Genesis and Sting to a more aggressive Dave Matthews Band.
