The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow

About Me

Sleepy Hollow is an eclectic rock band formed in Lodi, NJ in 1999. Their style is based upon a classic hard rock/metal sound featuring Joe Dell's prominent keyboards and old-school organ sounds, with Matt Schwarz's acoustic guitar and flute complimenting his aggresive electric-guitar playing. All members share vocal duties. Unusual meters, multi-sectioned epics, acoustic and electric dichotomy, and incorporation of classical, jazz, etc. influences add to their instrumental colors to give the band a progressive-rock slant.They released two CDs (the self-title EP and GOIN' OVER) with their original rhythm section of Frank Melick (drums/vocals) and Dan Castiel (bass/vocals). They are currently working on a double CD with drummer Gary "I don't sing" Rinaldi.
