Biography
The Electrix is a group of seasoned musicians, each with a lifetime of diverse experience in the music field.
The Electrix have been performing since 1995 and are recognized as one of the leading jam bands currently performing classic rock of the Grateful Dead and Allman Brothers, other related genres of music, and original compositions.
The Electrix weave in and out of intense jams with an incredible amount of enthusiasm and feeling, adding their own interpretation and style.
The Electrix have had the opportunity to share the stage and perform together with such notables as the late fiddle player Vassar Clements {Old & in the Way}, pedal steel guitarist Buddy Cage {The New Riders of the Purple Sage}, drummer Levon Helm {The Band} and guitarist/vocalist Michael Falzarano {Hot Tuna}.
The Electrix have also opened for The David Nelson Band, Commander Cody, The Robbie Krieger Band, and have been involved in shows with Jorma Kaukonen, Peter Rowan, David Gans and the late Dick Latvala.
The Electrix are playing in a wide variety of venues and festivals all over the Long Island and NYC areas.
The Electrix also perform as The Acoustix, an acoustic trio version of the band.
