“The band made the party! Everyone said it was the best party ever!! ”
Overview
This act has been described as a modern day "Thin Lizzy." It's been compared to acts such as King's X, The Band of Gypsies (Jimi Hendrix's Live Band), and oddly enough Lenny Kravitz (but heavier). There's nothing this band can't do, it's sings, it performs & it Rocks!!! If you see this act Live, and you can't find something you like, you should probably check your heart beat. It most likely means that you've passed on, and nobody told you. Never has this band NOT gotten a favorable reaction, and I mean NEVER! Every guy in this band is an extremely accomplished musician, and that becomes real obvious, from the word go. Do not deny yourself the experience of Jon E. Gee!!!

About
This act is a very "Agressive" Rock Band. No matter what we do, or where we go, there WILL be a positive reaction. You can expect Concert Level Professionalism. This act does about half original music, and some cover material. Jon E. Gee, the spokesman for the band has been in several national acts. He has been on every national stage there is, he's been on all the tv networks, and has performed literally around the world. He's played for several national acts to include, the Motor City Madman, Ted Nugent & the Americana Rocker John Mellencamp. The guys in this band have also performed in some national entities. This band has not yet released it's debut recording, but hopes it will be done before the years' end. They are a 4 piece round of full out Agression. The musicianship in this band can, and usually will go in a lot of different musical directions. The members of this act have also been onstage with some heavy hitters too, such as: Roadmaster, Bad Company, Quiet Riot, Night Ranger, Mitch Ryder & the Detroit Wheels, the Gap Band, Eric Benet, Bryan McKnight and many many more!!! There's no going wrong with the purchasing of this act. Rock 'n Roll at it's finest is right here. Be sure to say hello to "Grip" Elliott ( drums ), Daren "D.O." Owens (Guitar & Vox) "Dangerous" Rick Benick (Guitar & Vox) and Jon E. Gee too! (Bass & Vox)
