The Hitmen

About Me

classic rock, rhythm and blues, country, dance, jam band, stuff you've never heard ....The Hitmen Band is a work in progress that just keeps getting better all the time. We've spent many years collectively playing and listening to music form our favorite bands and then putting what we've learned into what I consider to be a real nice package. There is just so much good stuff out there that really moves us it would be inconceivable to limit ourselves to playing just one thing.Never actually using a set list keeps the ideas flowing and is one of the main reasons that during one set we might play some SRV, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Sam Cooke, Johnny Cash, Greg Kihn Band and maybe some Santana all while keeping the dance floor hopping and making everyone feelin' alright.Hitmen: Mark Markrush; guitar and vocals Marcel Bernier; bass and vocals Deb Kalousdian; electric violin/guitar vocals (fiddling extroadinaire) Paul Carchio; drums/entertainer and greatly appreciated for filling in while our reg. drummer; Dan Varieur is taking a break (get well soon dan)
