Full Caliber is Buffalo NY's straight up, down & dirty hard rock band.
Heavily influenced by the great rock bands of the 70's and 80's which include, AC/DC, Billy Squier, Sammy Hagar, Joe Walsh, Def Leppard Van Halen... to name a few.
Founded and fronted by the band's primary song writer Jake Cravotta, Full Caliber was formed in 2005 after he wrote and recorded the 7 track EP with included the arena rock style anthems: Midnight Run, Rhythm To Rock, and the politically incorrect, "I don't give a Goddamn" track: Good Booze & Bad Girls.
"It's all about playing good time rock and roll, at least where I'm concerned" according to Jake, "Not writing or singing about politics, or the war on terror or the economy. There are plenty of other bands and people who do that. What we're about, is playing down and dirty - in your face - feel good - rock and roll music."
Amen to that.
