July 2000: SKYCHIEF was born out of the upcoming music scene in Akron. Revue magazine quotes, “While SKYCHIEF is rock and roll they also tend to bleed into both punk and even some hard rock circa 1972. The performance is high energy with two raging guitars and pounding drums and bass.”
Currently, SKYCHIEF just released their first single "Michelle 3" off the forthcoming 13 track “AUTO EXCITER” due out early this year. Ric Nimrod has recently joined our quest for dominance as he rocks the Bass Guitar. When SKYCHIEF isn’t recording, they are playing shows in the regional area and around town. They have performed in Cleveland, Akron, Kent, Chicago and at Undercurrents, a regional music showcase held in Cleveland, OH.
SKYCHIEF is Taffi (Guitar & Vocals), Disco Steve (Guitar & Vocals), Smitty (heavy-hitting drummer). Ric Nimrod (Bass) These guys have been around the scene for awhile, playing in such bands as the legendary Albino Tree Frogs, The Nimrods, First Offense and The Rain Dogs.
