24 Til Dawn - more original content coming in 2022
Since 2015 except for me, the rest of the band is retired. All listed songs are played, mixed, blah by me, except We're Stars.
Band consists of 5 members, 4 of us are cousins. We've been playing together for the last 6 years and have music in our blood for at least 3 generations.
We play classic rock, heavy metal, alternative rock and punk.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Because all of us are spread across the US now, we play the occasional bar and party here and there. We hope to expand a wee bit more.
I do a lot of my own stuff and record in my basement studio.
Your musical influences
I grew up in the 80's metal scene, mullet and all. Influences include:
Randy Rhoads, Yngwie Malmsteen, Vinnie Moore (my cousin baby!) EVH, SRV, Satch, Paul Gilbert and Baroque god JS Bach. I also enjoy John Williams, Ihtzak Perlman as well as Fletcher Henderson, Chick Webb, Fats Waller and Chet Atkins
