   About Maxwell Strait
From long long ago and far far away they came and through musical alchemy coalesced into one of State College PA's grooviest party bands, mixing original music with their own funked-up and stripped-down interpretations of classic songs by the Rolling Stones, Neil Young, Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, Janis Joplin, U2, Sheryl Crow, Fiona Apple, The Stray Cats, Creedence Clearwater Revival, The Grateful Dead, Bonnie Raitt, Ted McCloskey, Talking Heads, The Doors, The Pretenders, Billy Preston, Little Feat, The Police, Johnny Cash, Tom Petty, Bobby Blue Bland, Bob Dylan, The Meters...Got the idea?

 

OK, one of our dirty little secrets is that we DO play weddings...
We were caught on tape here August 2007 playing the music from "Dirty Dancing" while Melissa & Al did the dance.
