The Smokey Grey Band

Bio
Keeping great music alive! The Smokey Grey Band is a 4-piece classic rock and blues band, covering music from the 60’s to the 90’s. From Beatles to Buffett, Clapton to Creedence, and so much more.
Larry Adelman plays rhythm guitar and handles most of the lead singing duties, along with bassist Mike Lenker. Larry sings with a bluesy growl reminiscent of EC, BB King, Springsteen or Joe Cocker, and his Clapton-influenced guitar skills are the perfect compliment to lead guitarist Phred Morris’ soulful shredding.
Phred’s a fantastic guitarist in the style of Jimi and Stevie Ray, and a terrific keyboardist as well. He assists on vocals and adds great versatility and musicianship to our band.
The rhythm section is anchored by co-founding member Ken Schechter on drums, percussion and vocals. Ken grew up listening to everything from Beatles to Hot Tuna, Stones to Allmans, and more! His rhythmic versatility is invaluable to us, as is Mike Lenker’s rock solid bass lines. Mike’s been the foundation of many local bands throughout the years, with a style shaped by everyone from Black Sabbath to ZZ Top, The Rolling Stones and more. Mike’s vocals are reminiscent of Billy Gibbons amongst others. An extremely welcome addition to our lineup!
