Clarias is a Boston band that has been giging around locally since 1999. “Intro” is a six-track introduction CD from the band. Musically this is classy, well written and played acoustic jam rock, heavy on the saxophone with some nice fluid guitar and the touch of a Ska groove that is somewhat reminisent of Dave Mathews. A CD that’s an ideal listen on long drive when you’re in no particular hurry just enjoying the drive (and my wife likes it also).
