Custom top banner code by Eileen End Code To Apply Top BannerKenneth Raftree attended his first rock concert at 11 years of age witnessing one of the great rock bands of his generation, AC/DC. After being captivated by the arena rock experience, he set his sites on playing guitar and never looked back. Today, Kenneth fronts his own band. As a vocalist, musician, songwriter, producer and engineer, Kenneth collaborates with long time friend drummer and vocalist Vincent Livolsi to create a brilliant new experience in today’s rock culture. To Highlight that experience, RAFTREE is excited to introduce our new lead guitarist Paul J Baccash. Paul has played in numerous bands over the years. He was most recently the lead guitarist of the cover band GO. His playing is articulate, aggressive and awe inspiring. We are glad to have him, and look forward to great things with him.While performing live in clubs and venues in New Jersey and New York such as Six Flags Great Adventure, Dexter’s, Axis Lounge, Dingbatz, Arlene’s Grocery, Cafe Arabica, The Cup, The Blue Room and The Metropolitan Lounge, they have been a featured artist on JerseyJam.com, WSOU’s Street Patrol and WDHA’s Home Grown Spotlight. This latest self-titled four song EP has received rave reviews both locally and internationally. RAFTREE is a solid rock act that blends funk, metal and soul and has received critical acclaim such as:..Raftree's soulful voice and heavy riffs work well against tasty lead guitar on songs like "Room" and the melodic single "Salvation", while "Missing" and ..Eyes You Hide.. are just all around solid heavy rock numbers with pounding rhythms and fiery guitar leads... - Pete Pardo, Publisher, Sea Of Tranquility..Salvation a forceful song with elements of classic rock fused with everything including the kitchen sink under the guise of contemporary innovative rock! Absolutely brilliant!.. - Colin Lynch, Executive Director, International Online Magazine...The songs on this EP have a very refreshing sound and the voice from Kenneth does remind me of a certain famous voice sometimes.. he combines the different styles as if it..s just one style. There are not a lot of bands who can do that like Raftree... - Jeroen, Editor, Rock-E-Zine (Netherlands).."Missing" is a song that would deem a favorite slot on MTV's HeadBangers Ball as soon as the metal heads heard it. I can see air guitars rockin.. and invisible drums slamming as the viewers put on their best "Bill and Ted" impressions. You guys will surely get a heaping spoonful of what Raftree is all about.. - Kristin Theckston, Staff Writer, BacStagePass.com..Progressive metal comes in all forms and sometimes sounds the same, but Raftree is one of those bands that you can label as ..progressive.. but has a sound that is all their own.. - Derric Miller, Staff Writer, Hardrock Heaven.netRAFTREE..s single Salvation is featured on The Best New Bands of 2007 compilation CD and they will be performing live throughout New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania.
