AREA 51 & The Old School Players were formed in the late winter & early spring of 2007. After years of searching for the right combination, Ben E. Kasanova, Tommy Rock, Chris O’rorke, & Scott Bose finally hit pay-dirt when two Percussionists named Stephen Avary & J.D. Black came over to the jam house on top of the mountain in Hot Springs Village. Kasanova, Bose, O’rorke, and Rock have played in several groups together over the last 15 years, most notably they were known as Area 51. They knew that if just someday they could find the right percussionist, that all their efforts would be worth it, and they could form the local super- group, that is a power quintet with seasoned professionals that would be both entertaining and fun and sound awesome. With Two Great Drummers in their line-up the group is definitely a flexible & dynamic force to be reckoned with in the Rock-n-Roll scene. With over 120 years playing experience between them all around the United States and abroad, and the six of them eating, sleeping, living, and breathing music since they all were very young, it shouldn’t take long for these old school musicians to turn a few heads and rock a few lifetimes. Specializing in but not limited to hard classic rock such as Hendrix, Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Bad Company, Foghat etc. and 90's rock icons such as Bush, Creed, Candlebox, & Guns-n-roses to name a few. They work with the audience very well and try to cover any requests they can. They have an arsenal of songs, killer equipment, reliable transportation, and a non stop, the show must go on attitude, Combined with their years of performing and talent honed to a fine edge, this band will surely be an asset to any Rock venue or event.

Ben E. Kasanova - Lead Vocals/ Frontman
