The Rhythm Syndicate

About Me

When you've been around almost 10 years you must be doing something right. The Rhythm Syndicate have clearly been doing just that since the mid 90's, when guitarists Pat Sandy and Angelo Ciu first met up at one of the many Thursday night jam sessions at the legendary Savannah nightclub in Westlake. It was there that the idea to form a band was hatched and recruiting began. It didn't take long to find like-minded hepcats and soon, the bluesy, finger-poppin', swing-a-rama sound of The Rhythm Syndicate was established.Sandy and Ciu are joined by the twin-tenor sax sounds of Dan Wenniger and Ian Early and the lock-step drumming of John Yencha. The band is further rounded out with Lincoln Adams in the bass chair.Together, The Rhythm Syndicate can light up a club in ferocious swingin' fashion, and suddenly take it down to a whisper without breaking a sweat. They'll throw in the occasional rock classic, and after satisfying that itch, head right back to blues... or maybe some swing, or even a touch 'o jazz...all guaranteed to get feet moving and bellies rubbing.And in 2006, The Rhythm Syndicate finally released their long-awaited self-titled debut cd - twelve tunes of uncompromising Syndicat vibe!Not content to rest on the heels of their debut, the boys laid it down righteously in November 2007 as they recorded a live set to be released in summer 2008.The Syndicate's got blues you can use...to spare.Check 'em out sometime, but a word of caution: you'll be staying late.
