Members include Paul Rodriguez, leader, guitar and vocals; Todd Rhodes, drums; Bob Ponte, keyboards; Michael Merrill, bass; and John MacNeill, saxes and Aerophone.
"What a pleasure it is to hear a band like Polarized Guru. This five-piece fusion group is polished, professional and plays with passion and joy (no cold fusion here). The band performs originals as well as standards from the likes of Return to Forever, Spyro Gyra and the Yellowjackets. This is a band for serious listening and enjoyment – recommended for concerts and clubs more than easy-listening jazz brunches." — Tom Nutile, Host of the Tuesday edition of Standard Time on WICN
