Deriving Their Name From The Spanish Translation Of “Naked Soul” Alma Desnuda Spreads A Poignant Message Of Community And Self-Abandonment Through The Use Of What They Call ‘socially Digestible Capsules.’ Given Their Rapidly Budding Fan Base After Their Award-Winning Single Walls And With The Release Of Their Debut Album Middleway It Seems As Though Everyone They Encounter Has Been Eating Up These ‘capsules’ By The Fistful. Back In 2002 Before There Was Alma Desnuda There Were Three Guys From California Paul Suhr Joe Glaser And Chris Bryden Who Met On A Study Abroad Term In Cordoba Spain. The Bond They Formed During That Time Was Based On An Unshakable Passion For Living Life To Its Fullest. After Spending The Next Five Years Following Their Own Paths Through Various Countries Korea Peru Ukraine And India To Mention A Few The Three Reunited In The Bay Area In 2007 And Hooked Up With National And World-Touring Bassist Tony Glaser With A Rekindled Passion For Creating Music That Is A Celebration Of Life A Catalyst For Change And A Source Of Hope. With A Unique Versatility That Allows Them To Transition Seamlessly From A Full-Out Dancing High-Energy Concert Venue To The Intimacy Of A Small Unplugged/acoustic Coffee Shop Alma Desnuda Can Adapt To Whatever The Situation Requires. They Know That When They Stay In The Present Moment Their Music Expresses Itself In The Right Way Nakedly As They Let Their Abiding Faith In The Goodness Of Their Message Take Them Where It Will.
