With two, front-men, lead guitarist/vocalists and a driving rythm section, Waterstreet delivers a wall of originality with a dose of good ol' rock and roll. No two shows are the same; above all, we sound like Waterstreet and if you have ever been to one of our shows, you know what that sound is!
Waterstreet over the past few years has created an original, hard-rock sound that leaves their fans reminiscing of the glory days of Rock and Roll. Originally formed by the two front-men lead guitarists, Evan Hand and Joe Shadid, Waterstreet has evolved into a 4 piece rock band with bassist Mike Crusen, and drummer Rob Gould. Their popularity in the midwest is growing at a rapid rate. The years of writing music and playing gigs has set Waterstreet apart from many other bands their age. Waterstreet fans run the gamut, from expert musicians to the most novice music fan. The band’s youth is key in connecting with a teen audience, while their knowledge of music attracts an older crowd who is impressed with the group’s classic sound. No matter where they perform, a person will never see an unenthusiastic live show by Waterstreet. The band worked with grammy nominated producer Rick Barnes at Rax Trax studios in Chicago, Il and recorded their new release "Meant For Thrills". With lots of hard work and support from everyone, the album is now complete and was released on 12/1/07.

Nothing makes a show better than a responsive crowd, and we are hoping you can come out to one (or both) of our first shows in the Chicago area. We do guarantee that the house will be rockin'!!
