Rick Fink and his Gas House Gorillas
"When the band is having as much fun on stage as the crowd, you know you’re in for a special night!"
John Fanizzo - JSJBF Jazz & Blues Notes
Whether swingin' like the Treniers, laying down an old Percy Mayfeild R&B number, or rockin' like Elvis, you can always be sure that the Gorillas will be having so much fun on stage that it's infectious.
Rick has recruited some of the best "roots" musicians in the New York Area. Equally adept at "swingin' the Blues" as they are at conjuring the fiery intensity of an early Rock & Roll combo, the Gorillas' sound is uniquely retro and modern all at once.
It's members have appeared on stage and/or recorded with such greats as B.B. King, Gary U.S. Bonds, Los Lobos, Baby Face, Chubby Checker, Jerry Lee Lewis and Danny Aiello.
With their house rockin' live shows and new CD, the Gorillas have been compared favorably to artists that include Bill Haley and his Comets and Brian Setzer.
Rick Fink and his Gas House Gorillas' live shows and new CD are sure to please anyone looking for a rippin' good time!
