the performance with a careful blending of 3-4 supporting background
vocals. The musical styles they produce become endless. Mandolin,
Banjo, Pedal Steel Guitar, and much more. It's all there in one unique

Genre: Progressive
/ Experimental / Indie
 A
trio hailing from Bay Village, Ohio, these guys are making some of the
most original indie/experimental rock I've heard in a long time. With
influences such as The Fall Of Troy and eclectic act Mars Volta , they
are largely instrumental, although they have started to introduce some
vocals. Their style is an almost psychedelic experience. Taking a
technique of building up the music into a cumulative climax, their
songs always keep you interested. In a classic instrument set-up, with
the McKenna brothers on guitar and bass and Griffin Reddy on drums,
they manage to produce sounds unique to themselves.

is just a bunch of guys who share a passion for music and have a great
time getting together to create it. The two true cousins of the band
are Bobby (Drums) and Kenny (Guitar). These two share the same intesity
for their love of music, and it really shows when they jam together.
Kennys love for the guitar is apparent as soon as he strums the first
chord, and Bobbys dynamic drum beats will keep you tapping your toes
all night! Along with the drums, driving our rhythm section is Curt
(Bass). Kenny and Curt have been playing together for the past 25
years, and their synchronized timing really holds the whole band
together. Adding his own special touch to the project is Mike (Guitar).
With his vocal prowess, killer harmonica, and his trusty guitar, Mike
is a one-man show all on his own. Our lead vocalist is Ted, just like
the rest of the guys Ted shares the same passion for creating great
music and entertaining the audience. Covering some of the greatest hits
from the 70's, 80's, 90's and today, every show is sure to be a great
one! Come out and see "Cuzzy", its sure to be one helluva show!
