Mono Means One is a psychedelic prog trio and the brainchild of bassist and composer John Ferrara, best known as the bass player and co-founder of the acclaimed world fusion band “ Consider the Source .”
Mono Means One’s sound contains melancholic melodies, rich sonic textures with Drum 'N’ Bass grooves and Mathrock sensibilities. Half composed and half improvised, the music is often dark, sometimes bright and other times heavy, oscillating between chill grooves to almost unbearable intensity.
Originally composed entirely on the bass guitar, John paired up with Rob Madore (Drums) and Isaac Young (Keys), of Connecticut's amazing PX3 to borrow some of their “Futuristic Synth-Driven Madness” to help bring layers and textures to these compositions that fill rooms across the Northeast.

Mono Means One
Psychedelic Rock Trio
Bassist and composer John Ferrara (Consider the Source,
Soloist) is thrilled to be releasing his debut album with his new project Mono Means One on 5/10/24! The album, Listless Playthings of Enormous Forces, was created by transforming a yurt into a fully functioning recording studio over the course of only 2 days. Ferrara, keyboardist Isaac Young and drummer Rob Madore (both of PX3) holed up in this yurt at Lakeside Retreats in Raleigh NC, and created something truly unique and powerful. Following is a bit about the band and why this is the best ever album recorded. In a yurt....
Mono Means One is an instrumental progressive/psychedelic trio flooring audiences up and down the east coast thanks to incredible musicianship, mixed with moody tones and poignant melodies. Their debut album will consist of 8 tracks, and sounds somewhere between Radiohead, The Mars Volta and Medeski Martin and Wood. Their well-balanced mix of improvisation and composition mixed with a keen sense of juxtaposition serves to bring listeners to the brink of insanity and then back home to a serene homeostasis several times over. Audiences fall in love with the unique, blended layers of sound, often not knowing whether to dance or simply revel in awe at John’s seamless simultaneous integration of Taurus pedals and bass tapping technique, Rob’s explosive energy behind the drum set or Issac’s mastery on the keys and manipulating sounds..
The idea to record in a yurt was to break out of the studio setting and create in an environment where calm can exsit and creativity could flow. The result was even better than expected, with an emotionally potent and very unique sounding album with all members on their “A” game.
The album’s title, Listless Playthings Of Enormous Forces, is a reference from Kurt Vonnegut’s Slaughterhouse Five, about how agency is lost in war. This title also extends to spiritual freedom lost in todays world due to our obsession with phones, celebrities and all other things that large corporations would rather us focus , robbing us of purpose, dignity and essentially our humanity. John believes art should fight these forces and this album is a right hook to it!
