The 33rd Street Band LLC is a diverse group of seasoned musicians who share a love of the great horn bands of the 1960s and 1970s. Each member brings his unique background to the music to make a unified wall of sound, creating fantastic big horn rock and roll excitement!
The band's founder Steve VerMeulen (tall guy in center of pic) envisioned a big showband with a "killer horn section" to play the music of Tower of Power, Chicago, Blood Sweat & Tears, Ides of March, Lighthouse, Blues Brothers, Etc. In early 2003 the band came together in the basement of Steve's house, located off of 33rd Street. The band also rehearsed for a while at a house on another 33rd Street. This coincidence, plus the fact that the all this great music was originally released on 33 rpm vinyl, made the name an easy choice.
The 33rd Street Band LLC has extensively toured the region playing Festivals, corporate events, nightclubs and private parties. We occasionally team up with the acclaimed Blues Brothers impersonators, the Soul Men of Cleveland, Ohio, to authentically recreate the Blues Bros. phenomenon.
Now located in downtown Kalamazoo, Michigan the 33rd Street Band LLC is smokin' hot and ready to make your event memorable!
