About Me

DRIVETRAIN IS THE YOUNG BLOODS WITH THE OLD SOULS. WITH VAST MUSICAL KNOWLEDGE AND CHOPS FOR DAYS, THIS ENERGY-DRIVEN FUNK/BLUES EXPLOSION IS SURE TO GET YOU ON YOUR FEET AND SCREAMING FOR MORE.THIS FIERY MUSICAL EXPERIENCE WAS INITIATED WHEN NICK BOETTCHER, LEAD GUITARIST/VOCALIST, STARTED EXPERIMENTING WITH HIS BLUES AND R&B ROOTS. WHILE ATTENDING BERKLEE COLLEGE OF MUSIC, THE MOST PRESTIGIOUS CONTEMPORARY MUSIC SCHOOL IN THE WORLD, HE MET BASSIST/VOCALIST/KEYBOARDIST BRIAN QUINN. NICK AND “FUNKY” BRIAN BEGAN TO FUSE THEIR COMMON PASSION FOR OLD-SCHOOL FUNK, BLUES, AND R&B WITH THEIR YOUTHFUL ENERGETIC SPIRIT FOR LIVE PERFORMANCE TO CREATE THE DRIVETRAIN.ADD IN SEASONED DRUMMER, CORTEZ BANKS, AND YOU’VE GOT THE NEXT SMOKING-HOT POWER TRIO. DON’T LET THE FEW BAND MEMBERS FOOL YOU. THE DRIVETRAIN SOUND IS BIGGER THAN LIFE. THINK JIMI HENDRIX MEETS RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS WITH A SOUND BIGGER THAN A MACK TRUCK.THEIR BLEND OF FUNK-ROCK JAMS AND SOUL-BENDING BALLADS WILL CAPTIVATE AUDIENCES EVERYWHERE. DRVIETRAIN HAS OPENED FOR CHRIS DUARTE, BERNARD ALLISON, RONNIE BAKER BROOKS, WAYNE BAKER BROOKS, AND THE LIST GOES ON.DRIVETRAIN IS CHARGING FULL FORCE THROUGH THE LIVE MUSIC SCENE. JUST ASK ANY VENUE OR PROMOTER THAT DRIVETRAIN HAS WORKED WITH AND FIND OUT FOR YOURSELF.I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)

Good to Play In Peoria

We had a great night last night at Po Boy's. Our good friend Roy Ponce from Brainchild sat in to play a little guitar (if you know Roy, perhaps "a little guitar" isn't the right phrase, he's smokin')...
