VOLTO!'s sound is difficult to classify due to their genre-bending nuances. Guitarist John Ziegler cites influences such as Jimi Hendrix and Miles Davis. The band draws heavily from the art rock crowd and has even been embraced by the jazz community. On August 19, 2007 they performed at prestigious Los Angeles jazz club La Ve Lee, as the band's sound is steeped in jazz fusion. [cite web
