Drums.

ABOUT

Still play with some old band members from many years ago. Would like to offer something different than the usual Newy cover bands. (been there - done that). Have a soft spot for surf guitar and classic Chess Chicago Rhythm & blues (Willie Dixon, Howlin' Wolf etc). Recent efforts in recording studios ( 4+ original songs) have turned out well and received good response on Community FM stations. iantag*at*yah*oo*dot*com may find me (no stars).
In 2024 we are looking for a drummer for recording and gigs. Have a look on fb for: ChessBrothersNewy to find several clips/songs. We also have a Youtube page (Chess Brothers)

Influences

Anything from Chess records of the 50's-60's era. Sucker for surf guitar in any form ( ie 1st wave/2nd wave/3rd wave). Los Straightjackets / Messerchups represent a modern take on this genre. A non-shredding Roy Buchanan and Robben Ford are both tasteful blues players. Peter Green is another.
