   About Minus Six
A guitarless rock band may seem strange at first, but the piano, bass, drums, and sax group, Minus Six, have proven they can derive an impressive rock sound despite not having a guitar, thus leading to the band’s name Minus Six.

Formed in 2003, the band includes Kevin Carton (Piano and Lead Vocals), Kameron Rummans (Bass and Vocals), Matt Sivertsen (Saxophones), and Rob Baner (Drums).

Over the past three years the group has been writing and arranging original compositions and performing at Midwestern venues. Minus Six released their debut album, entitled Overdue, in June of 2004. They recorded their second album, Some Things Change, on Music Row, in Nashville, TN., which was released in August of 2005. The group returned to Nashville in August of 2006 to record their third album, Hidden Deep in the Green, which was released in early 2007.

All four band members are Illinois Quad City natives - Kevin, Matt, and Rob are all from Moline. Kameron is from Rock Island.

Minus Six is a rock / pop orientated group that draws influences from many styles. They fill their concerts with inspired original music and use their unique style and contagious energy to play hits from the present and the past. A Minus Six concert is an experience for everyone.

We want to see you sing and dance.

Time doesn't wait and neither should you. The sooner you get your PR campaign launched, the sooner you'll see results. I've worked PR for international record labels and you can have me in your corner for as little as 100 a month - that's 25 a week - email me today and get your career moving toward the next level. Of course, if you are happy just staying where you are, then you don't need to do any PR, but if you want to move forward, get in touch today.

Thanks for approving my friend request. Don't forget, whether you need some tips on a press release, a full PR campaign or anything in between, I can handle it for you. Just drop me an email and let all your musician friends know about my PR service.
