Resurrection Larry – Chicagoland’s Newest High Energy Power Rock Band

admin — Sat, 30 Jan 2010 14:40:43 +0000

Named in homage to the legendary Chicagoland hitch-hiking spirit Resurrection Mary, Resurrection Larry combines their own musically inspired tunes with today’s top hits and select classic rock covers from bands such as the Doors, Allman Brothers, Pink Floyd, and Deep Purple.

Described in the Chicago Tribune as “Pink Floyd vs. Led Zeppelin in a bar fight on Mars”, Resurrection Larry blends complex arrangements with memorable tunes and lyrics to please the most jaded rock fan. The band’s philosophy is centered on the show which includes interacting with the crowd. Their performances are not about big egos or strutting (unless requested).

Rocking Midwest Festivals and the best Chicago clubs since 2007, Resurrection Larry delivers powerful bass and percussion, throw-back lyrical vocals, gravel-crunching organ sounds and classic-soaring lead guitar work.

Aftermath

admin — Wed, 31 Dec 2008 02:12:11 +0000

Born and raised in the Chicago Suburbs, the musical powerhouse group called ‘Aftermath’ is all about good friends playing GREAT music. As a concept bred by Dru Ruger and Jesse Schramel- Aftermath was in a developmental stage making music for a rough year and a half before recruiting the talented and long time friend- Zack Mayfield on the bass guitar. Zack brings a hard hitting jazz and classical style tune to Dru’s tough, catchy and metal oriented guitar riffs and Jesse’s Grungy-blues vocal style. After a year of laying down music, Aftermath had searched for the final piece to the puzzle. Brian Dietrich was brought into Aftermath with his ‘Speed-metal’ and earth pounding knowledge on the drums. With an undying love for the hard-hitting and ear snagging music in the industry, Aftermath pushes to bring the top of the line space filling music that will, without a doubt, grow to unbelievable levels in the music world.
