Electric
Cheesemelt is an original band out of the Lehigh Valley in Pennsylvania.
Their music can be described as American Homegrown Rock-n-Roll. This
is an original sound that rides the edge of the far reaches of pop.
Influenced by the music of the Beatles, Black Crows, Allman Brothers
and Led Zeppelin, Electric Cheesemelt has been compared to the Doors
without the drunken perversion. Since November 2001, the band has
been focused on increasing their loyal fan base and recording new
songs.
With eleven
songs now recorded, a new website www.electriccheesemelt.com, and an amazing
two and a half hour live set, Electric Cheesemelt is on the forefront
of the local music scene and ready for nation wide promotion.
The roots
of the band run deep. Founding members Bob Pursell and Joe Barrell
have been playing guitar together for over ten years. Bobs' style
combines full rhythms and melodic solos that you want to hum along
to and Joes' unique approach combines a twelve string guitar, a little
over-drive, and a wah-wah. Vocalist Charlie Madzarac has a powerful
voice. He was nominated for singer of the year at the 2001 Lehigh
Valley Music Awards.
The bass
is zealously provided by Steve Wachter, who provides counter to the
point, while grooving it in under the radar, which is necessary with
two drummers in the band. Erick Black lays out a solid rhythm with
a jazz flair and hard rock backbone.
This is
a band of mature goal orientated musicians who have developed an unique
style of song writing that conveys the talent of each musician while
not taking away from the song.
