Hi its Patty. Yes the website is finally here, I don’t know why it took so long, I guess putting a band together, raising six kids and getting your hair right for every performance takes a lot more time than you realize. We are so happy to be back and playing gigs that we feel like we are all kids again. All we do is laugh and try to out rock each other. There is a new EP in the works, should be out by the fall.
I’m writing some pretty groovy tunes I must say. Keith Mack still has a giant head (not ego just head) and Benji King is now wailing on guitar as well as keyboards. We have done some dates with The Romantics, Pat Benatar, Rick Springfield and Loverboy to name a few. They all sound really good. It was great to see and meet them all. We have a lot of ideas for this site, we want to invite you into our world on and off the road, and we may even have a coffee talk moment or two. We are all based out of New York except Keith who lives in Delaware. The new drummer and bass player Eran Assias and Tom Welsch is such a tight unit and play so friggin’ good that we all feel this is the best band we’ve ever had.
Thank you so much for all the support you have given me and the band over all this time, we have missed you and are so glad to be back in the saddle again. Be sure to look for our new music and to come out to see us play. You never know what can happen at one of our shows. Someone always takes off their shirt, or some article of clothing. And my husband Johnny Mac has been known to play an encore with us, when he’s not busy yelling at people backstage (lol). We are looking forward to a new chapter for us as a nation, as a planet and as a band. I will be watching you and checking in as much as possible, welcome to my crazy, mixed up world.
Stay in touch, we will too,
Patty Smyth
