   About Black Velvet
!!! Don't Forget to visit www.blackvelvetct.com !!!

BAND INFO:
         Birthed out of a love of classic and 90s hard rock and a strong desire to satiate bar-goers longing for loud guitars, Black Velvet began to take shape in early 2006 when rhythm guitarist Angelo Labella and drummer Mike Savignano finally decided to pursue a long overdue collaborative project. Savignano soon called upon longtime friends and jam partners Steve Blonski and Devin Jumper to fill out the group with their low and high end mastery, respectively. After a year of tightening their chops with former vocalist Vin Lazarro, Black Velvet welcomed Jeff Piekarz on as the new sound and personality of the band. Taking cues (and covers) from groups like Stone Temple Pilots, Rage Against the Machine, Led Zeppelin and Sublime, Black Velvet has amassed a repertoire of rock and roll that has stood the test of time and is truly aurally diverse. Originals and covers of lesser known acts such as Earth to Andy and the Bountiful Harvest complete the package and ensure that each show is fresh and engaging. At a Black Velvet show, it wouldnt be unusual to hear the Presidents of the United States of America's Peaches paired with the Red Hot Chili Pepper's Aeroplane. It also wouldnt be unusual to find yourself having a great time while rocking to some of the best true rock and roll that a local band could offer.

By (H+) M.S.G. (from the Archives)

We were being and knowing
That two were one, and we were three
In twelve sided cosmos, drifting by
I wasn’t seeing I was feeling
And wasn’t being, doing, two were one
And when I looked to it
Nothing but the corner of my eye
Then we were three, and being
Being and doing
I hadn’t known that two were one
We were that same one, and being
When I know, I feel
I see that two were one
We were three and being
Drifted through twelve sides
And we were being
Knowing that two were one
And falling there on clouds like stars
We were three and known
We were one, I don’t know
I was being, doing, but I knew
That two were one
And clouds flow down
Drifting, we know, and see
Doing, and knowing we were three
And knowing two were one
That two were one.
