  • Bio

    Last of our Kind (LOOK) is the pre-eminent Alternative/Eclectic/Experimental/Rock Band on the San Antonio music scene. In a remarkable career that started out as a two piece Instrumental act, LOOK is Amadeus Fernandez on lead guitar, Bryan Alfaro on guitar and lead vocal, Eric Miculka on drum and backing vocal,, and Derek Easterling on bass and backing vocal . LOOK continues to push the standard for original rock music in the San Antonio scene. Critical acclaim and a wide demographic fan base has built a dedicated following that grows each year. Whether headlining local bars, playing music festivals, headlining benefit concerts, or sharing the stage with such celebrated acts as Grupo Fantasma, The Dreaming, Vallejo, Blowing Trees, February Chorus, VAST, Mothers Anthem, Sounds Under Radio, and others, LOOK continues to add to their accomplishments. Their energy, showmanship, and vitality of their music and songwriting has kept LOOK at the forefront of the music scene. From beginning as an open-mic act to making finals in every battle of the bands entered, LOOK’s humble and inconspicuous journey has been one of hard work, perseverance, and dedication . Most recently LOOK entered the Hard Rock Café Calling in which they won the top spot in the San Antonio and made it to the semi finals in 2009 . As well as being a featured band for 2009’s Texas Folklife festival and SA Rock n Roll Marathon 2009 compilation cd for New Balance shoes . Their music is clever, melodic, and refined and their performances are entertaining, mesmerizing and epic. There’s a reason why San Antonio’s Current magazine awarded best instrumentalist of San Antonio 2007 to Amadeus Fernandez, and why SARocks.com was impressed with new vocalist Bryan Alfaro. The new addition of Eric Miculka on drums, and Derek Easterling on bass has given a robust and full sound to the LOOK family ready for the making. - Amadeus’ chord progressions and riffs are catchy, delicate, and moody. - Bryan’s vocals are melodic, vibrant, passionate, and daring. - Eric’s drum work is seamless, poised, and extraordinary. - Derek’s bass playing is well thought and persuasive. The interaction among the four represents Alternative and Eclectic Rock at its best. LOOK is in the midst of its creative stride with four candidates that work and play well together. LOOK will release a much anticipated demo album in the summer of 2010 followed by a self-titled freshman album scheduled for work in late 2010 as well as being a featured band for San Antonio’s Fiesta event “ Oysterbake Festival” in 2010 . By all accounts, for this “eclectic band,” as SARocks.com recently described them, “it would be best to keep your eyes on this band and your ears tuned in to their music. LOOK has finally come in to their own. for booking or more info email amadeus@lastofourkind.com .... ....Last of our kind T-shirts for Sale...
