The Brethren

THE BRETHREN are a variety of things...funk rock band...jazz/fusion ensemble...hard improvisational rock..but there is one thing they aren't...complacent. THE BRETHREN was formed in August 2004 under the belief that the local scene needed a shot of good natured, progressive energy, fused with the jam band aesthetic of groups gone by. ..THE BRETHREN is comprised of Guitarist/Keyboardist/Singer Ronnie Dark Lauback, whose been entertaining CNY crowd since the mid 90's. Simply put, Ron is the romantic who turns into a wild animal on stage. Paul Puzzullo is the bands bassist and resident low end merchant, proficient in funky slap style bass and acoustic stand up technique. Rob Hill brings a fresh instrumental voice to the band, and his slow burning solos and bluesy tone are a nice counterpoint to Ron's guitar pyrotechnics. Drummer Josh Walts steers the band into new territories with his wide ranging drum and percussion. With his poly-rhythms, syncopated grooves and burning solos, Josh is well on his way to becoming an even more popular and versatile drummer!
