Influences
Rocking Out at Kenny's Castaways NYC Photos by Brian Dodd
Ryan OConnor (drums) and Nat Ward (lead guitarist and vox), friends since childhood, formed Below Carmine with one goal in mind: to kick ass and have a great time doin' it. This past December Ward and O'Connor had a stroke of luck and found the missing element of their power trio. Bassist, Ryan Madora came on board and has been energizing the bottom end with thundering riffs and blues inspired low-end melodies.
With their new line up and material that is sure to keep you coming back for more, this New York band brings a refreshing attitude and an explosion of power and melody. For more information visit their website www.belowcarmine.com.
