It is difficult to imagine a more unlikely set of suburban kids than Fischer, Lee and Jason founding a hip-hop group, all hailing from Salt Lake City, Utah.

Bio
FurtherMore has been able to establish themselves and also has been able to develop a loyal following. Despite a small local hip-hop scene, FurtherMore was granted great opportunities when they had the pleasure of being the local opening act for De La Soul and Run DMC. And in 1998, they were included in the line up of the Salt Lake City date of the Vans Warp Tour.
FurtherMore was signed to Tooth and Nail Records in 1999 and has been reviewed as one of the best bands that the label has released in years. FurtherMore is quickly developing a strong national and international following. The CD reveals FurtherMore's assortment of non hip-hop influences and showcases their positive ideas. The title track plays like "License to Ill" era Beastie Boys, while sugary, ethereal waves of sound highlight "Another Dimension". “Are You the Walrus" brings a full symphony along for the ride. Their diverse influences meld together to form a melodic canvas of both old school and progressive sounds on which Fischer, Jason and Lee paint their rhymes.
