Thirteenth Floor

“Thirteenth Floor” is a dynamic rock band that blends the raw energy of classic rock with the alternative edge of 1990s rock. Playing songs from legendary acts like The Allman Bothers Band, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers alongside ‘90s icons like Soul Asylum and Pearl Jam, the band crafts a sound that feels both nostalgic and refreshingly modern. With gritty guitar riffs, pounding drum beats, and soulful, emotionally charged vocals, their music bridges generations of rock enthusiasts.

Thirteenth Floor consists of musicians from past bands like The Infants, The Hope Dashers, The New York Vaults and Flave Country. The lineup includes Chet Parker on Lead Guitar, Steve Cavatassi on Drums, Ryan Smith on Lead Vocals, Paul Jones (Jonesy) on Rythm Guitar, Connor Needham on Bass and Scott Tartaglia on Keyboards.

The Chinchillas

The Chinchillas have been playing and recording original Americana rock’n’roll in the western New York area since 1985. Formed out of the remnants of popular Rochester area alternative music bands, the band still today retains the original lineup of Peter Anvelt (guitar, vocals), Bill Corbett (bass, vocals), Bill Ribas (lead guitar) and Paul Ruske (drums). In addition to headlining clubs and festivals throughout the region, they have opened up for national acts such as Goo Goo Dolls, 900 Ft Jesus, Jerry Harrison, Flock of Seagulls, The Ramones and Johnny Thunders. They have released several CDs on the Jargon Records independent label.
