The Fries Band

About Me

"THE FRIES BAND", formerly "The Fries", and originally "The French Fries", has been entertaining people in the Dayton area for the past 18 years with their unique treatment of popular and obscure cover songs, in addition to a diverse assortment of their own originals. They blend major intricate, complex harmonies driven by acoustic guitars with keyboards, bass, and drums to create very distinctive musical arrangements specializing in the sounds of Crosby Stills Nash & Young, America, The Beatles, Eagles, etc.They have opened up for many national acts, such as: Foghat, Kansas, The Guess Who, Gladys Knight, Mick Fleetwood, Henry Lee Summer, The Dixie Dreggs, Martina McBride, 1964 as the Beatles, and many more.www.thefriesband.com
