Band Members: Tongue-N-Groove is:
Ronnie Hughes-Guitar,Vocals
Heidi Helser-Drums,Vocals
Rob Payne-Guitar
Brady Knuckles- Bass, Vocals
Influences: Zeppelin, Hendrix, Nugent, Pat Benetar, Triumph, Kiss, '80's Hair bands, Sabbath, Ozzy, the Godz, Heart, Maiden, Priest, Van Halen, The Runaways, pretty much a little bit of everything.......I think we all have similar influences yet still have a little different taste in the music we listen to. We run the gamut of being classic rock oriented, into the heavier '80's and '90's stuff, and also being into new music, definitely leaning towards the heavier end of the musical spectrum.
Sounds Like: I guess i'd say we sound like.....ROCK & ROLL.........mostly we've been doing covers and we're looking forward to doing more original stuff soon. Our originals, "Xtasy" and "Take Me Away", were both written by Ronnie during the '80's era of music and they do have that '80's vibe but I think we did well bringing them up to date..... Everything else we do we try to be as true to the originals as possible, yet adding our own twists here and there. Sometimes you just go with what you feel!!! If it works , it works!!
