"The music of southern Californian band ONOFFON is hard to categorize, but easy to listen to (which is not to say this is easy listening by any means). Their brand of rock combines elements of progressive rock with straight jazz. You can hear the influence of the cool jazz of the '50s west coast players in their music, as well as the complexity of bands such as Gentle Giant and Emerson Lake & Palmer, influences the band readily admit to."
"Von Babasin (bass, vocals, keyboards; son of the '40s and '50s jazz bassist/cellist Harry Babasin whose Nocturne Records contributed significantly to west coast jazz) and Dave Goode (drums, percussion) had played together for over a decade before meeting Don Lake (guitars, vocals, harmonica) and forming ONOFFON around 1996."

The All Music Guide
"The band has become one of my favorites for several reasons. First, they're all great musicians and even their worst critic has to give them that. Second, they're one of the most adventurous risk-takers out there. Let's just say that they're not only interesting, ground-breaking, and original, but they're also visionaries."
