MyGen Profile GeneratorPhiladelphia’s rock scene is an exploding galaxy of new stars, but none shines as brilliantly or bangs as big as Philly’s own, MACH22.MACH22 is not a band; it’s an experience. With a sound that pays tribute to Living Colour, Lenny Kravitz, AC/DC and Led Zeppelin; MACH22 is changing the face of rock in the US with every performance. They’ve played some of Philadelphia's most prestigious venues, Khyber, Five-Spot, M-Room and North Star Bar. The band quickly gained quick notoriety on the east coast; recently landing them in NYC’s most talked about rock clubs such as Fat Baby, Don Hills, SOB’s and the legendary CBGB’s. MACH22 have taken their sound across the pond, having performed at London’s premier live music venue, Jazz Café in London England, where their Rock fusion sound was met with high praise, opening up for Interscope / Universal Music Recording artist, Bilal.MACH22 started as the brainchild of Lamont Caldwell who wanted an outlet for his vocal songwriting. With his vast expertise as a very accomplished saxophonist who has performed and toured with such artists as Jay-Z, The Roots and Dave Matthews Band; Lamont (singer/songwriter/guitarist/producer), has a knack for writing catchy lyrics and entrancing melodies that drives the band’s sound. His true passion is in “conveying [his] message.” and his lack of pretense gives way to a poetic honesty that comes cloaked in blues and rock alike. Lead Guitarist Dai Miyazaki has a groove and sound that is untouchable with chops to match adding various harmonic dimensions. Bassist Mike Snyder lays down lines that are deep and rumbly with the unmistakable attack of ‘80s power rock and metal keeping the groove. The final member of this rock 4-piece is Sean McFadden on drums who's playing has grit and dirt that makes the band unique in a time of musical monotony. MACH22 carries the spirit of raw, animal classic rock with classically soulful vocals, which is nice to hear in this day and age.Music is in need of a change that is long over due - Experience MACH22.
