GENT TREADLY HEADS OUT OF NYC

  • Send to a Friend

Veteran jammers Gent Treadly will be leaving the comfort of their NYC homebase in the months ahead to explore the climate in Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Vermont and California with winter trips to Colorado/Utah and the Caribbean on the horizon.

Gent Treadly is a movable feast of some of the finest players in NYC. The lineup consists of one of the slammingest rhythm sections you'll ever hear: Greg Koerner on bass (a veteran of New York bands Uncle Buzz, The Joneses and Crimson Rose and more recently a "phil-in" for the Dark Star Orchestra) and Tom Kaelin on drums (formerly of Gravity, Dreamspeak and Atlantic recording artists, The Hatters). Mike Jaimes rounds out the lineup as a guitarist who can truly shred. (Mike has been a mainstay of the NYC scene for over a decade as a founding member of Native and more recently, as a sideman for Craig Dreyer & Friends).

Gent Treadly is truly a unique act and the players are the real deal. Together, they've evolved into one of the most heralded units in New York City - offering a precocious blend of bluesy improvisational roots rock. Other major artists agree: over the years these guys have been joined onstage by members of The Grateful Dead, Phish, Spin Doctors, Blues Traveler, Merl Saunders, The Band, Jorma Kaukonen, The Neville Brothers, Leftover Salmon, Milo Z and many others.

Although the players in Gent Treadly have logged many miles in service of the jam in their prior bands, this is the first time that this unit will have played in many of the venues they plan to visit in the coming months. So come on out, say hello to the boys and boogie on. Go see live music indeed!
