Columbus band Six Gallery to play Blind Bob’s
For three years the Columbus-based progressive-rock band Six Gallery was an all instrumental 4-piece.
This Saturday, January 17th, Six Gallery will take the stage at Blind Bob’s with their new vocalists and fifth member Dan Francis.
“It was never a decision we made to be instrumental,” said bass player Alex Weinhardt. “It was just how the music turned out. Actually throughout the entire existence of this band, we have been trying to incorporate vocals. It just never worked out and we always sounded good as an instrumental outfit.”
Weinhardt also assured me that fans in Dayton will relish the differences from their last visit.
“The last show we played in Dayton was only the second show with our vocalist,” said Weinhardt. “Our friends and fans who came to that show know that things have been evolving with us, especially with the addition of vocals. Expect to see something a little different than you are used too with us on Saturday.”
The band, who met and began playing in 2005 while attending Ohio University, have a dreamboat sound in line with Unwed Sailor and the Appleseed Cast.
Last year Six Gallery released a 4-song EP entitled Prelude. The band is currently working on their first full length due out this Summer.
Playing with Six Gallery at Blind Bob’s Saturday will be local electro-punk favs Astro Fang.
If you miss them Saturday the band will be back to Dayton on February 26th with Joe Anderl also at Blind Bob’s.
