Cosmic Wheel
NEWS
Cosmic Wheel will be performing at Stooges Pub in Fitchburg on Saturday March 18th. We're planning on the Stooges show being our CD release party. With any luck, copies of our new CD will be available there, as it would be a funny CD release party with no CDs. We're also playing at the Kazbar in Worcester (next to the palladium) on Saturday March 25, and will be at Fuel in Lowell on Friday April 14th. Stay tuned as more gigs are added!

Hello out there! We are Cosmic Wheel! Thank you for coming to our page! It gets so lonely here sometimes... the cold nights can do strange things to a man... Anyway, we'd love for you to spend some time finding out what we're all about. We're an alt power-pop quartet from Boston MA, playing all original tunes (except for the occasional quirky cover). By the way, RIDE THE WHEEL!
Why this name?
The Cosmic Wheel is the name of a bike shop that used to be in Bogota, NJ, the town next to where Rob Shapiro grew up (the beautiful island paradise of Teaneck, NJ).
Do you play live?
Yes! Whenever possible! Why, do you want us to play somewhere? (Oh, sorry... not an offer..) We are playing at local clubs such as the Kendall in Cambridge and Partner's in Fitchburg. With this much love in the room, every moment is special.
If you make it big..?
Whaddaya mean, if? (Hahaha) We'll probably continue to practice in a garage where the average temperature in winter is lucky to break 5 degrees. Then again, maybe not.
Band History:
The horrible byproduct of a secret government experiment gone terribly awry. Still wanted by the government, they survive today as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire.... COSMIC WHEEL!
Your influences?
Neil Young & Crazy Horse, The Beatles, REM, Tom Petty, Oasis, Pink Floyd, Roger Waters, Fastball
Favorite spot?
The above mentioned freezing garage is kinda nice.
Equipment used:
An old jug, a washboard, and a washtub bass. (Oh yeah, and a kazoo!)
Anything else...?
We love you! We really love you! Come see us!
