About Me

I love music, playing, writing, recording and listening... I play guitar, bass, some drums, some keys and I don't consider myself a bad singer either... Played all the parts on my new cd Ordinary People and currently am doing two-man and solo acoustic gigs in Northern In and lower Mi... My song-writing style is a little unique... I try to implement witty sometimes funny lyrics (i.e. country?) into pop/rock music... I grew up jammin' to rock-n-roll and that's what I write, I've been told it's maybe not the most "marketable" music by some in the industry, but it's what comes out of me and I don't want to change it... My music doesn't "sound" like any one band... I don't try to emulate my favorite artist or anything like that... I want to stay different and try different things in my tunes, being the same doesn't always make for a great song... Hope you enjoy and thanks for reading...

Band Members: Vocals, lead guitar- Telly Speicher/ Vocals, Lead Guitar-Tony Kendrick-- Buy my first disc from my official website (above) or from cd babyBuy From itunes"Stand Up" by Telly Speicher is an enjoyable CD with a thick grungy sound. Telly’s vocals howl at you with a Layne Staley-type soul and vibrato. Telly sings of every day things through a collection of songs spanning the last fifteen years. A highlight of the CD are the impressive guitar licks and the tasteful harmonies. The lead track "Ss-up" comes right at you with a wicked riff, shredding guitar solos, and a signature voice. "Comin Down" combines a bar room blues rhythm with wailing guitars and interesting vocal effects. "Blayze" breaks it all down into a heartfelt acoustic number. If you like Alice in Chains, you will enjoy this CD. -William and the RadioIndy.com Reviewer Team Check out Telly Speicher’s music on RadioIndy.com with link to purchase

Influences:I like a little of everything, back in my younger days I really dug the Seattle scene such as Pearl Jam, Sound Garden, Alice in Chains and so on.... Since then I've become a little older (maybe not wiser) but I've broadened my horizons more with Dream Theater, Rush, even just a little King Crimson, you know, the stuff that makes you want to thru your instrument thru a wall!... My guitar heros would be Vai, Satriani, Jimi, SRV, and of course Petrucci... I still really love Chris Cornell's voice for rock, and Brent Smith of Shinedown has a super rock voice!.. But all in all I can't classify my tastes because they're just way too broad... From rock to country, blues to grunge, and metal to pop, I like just about all of it...
Sounds Like: Smooth and flowing rock, with some blues and funk mixed in for flavor, some slow it down acoustic with different timings to create off-beat twists laced with intertwined harmonies to grab your ears and pull... I've been told my voice sounds like Brent Smith of Shinedown, Staley and Cantrell of Alice in Chains, and also Eddie Vedder of Pearljam... Of course different songs on the disc may showcase different styles but all in all I think that's some good vocalists to sound like...
