| "Their stylish,
moody Britpop is a great refuge whenever you're a bit bored with noisy
American Garage Rock"- CityBeat The Green Room was formed in the summer of 1993 in Cincinnati. The original lineup consisted of Christopher Glandorf on vocals and occasional rhythm guitar, David Wesenberg on lead, Troy Freel on bass, and Kevin DeMorest on the drums. Highlights of the first years include several packed shows at the infamous Warehouse Nightclub, regular appearances at clubs such as Bogart's and Sudsy Malone's, and inclusion on the first ever Cincinnat1 local compilation CD [Deary Me]. The band continued to play throughout the '90's using various line-ups and even a different name; "Room Nineteen" before disbanding in 1999. On 21 July, 2001 The Green Room returned with Christopher on bass and vocals, David on rhythm, and newcomer Fredrix on lead guitar. Marty Williamson helped out on drums until Feb. 2003 when Todd Hanson was "awarded" the position. Now, in 2005, Marty is back... The Green Room has performed at the prestigious MidPoint Music Festival in 2003, 2004 and 2005, as well as several high-profile charity events, such as 2004 and 2005's 80's Pop Rocks benefits for AVOC, and 2003's Ramones tribute. 2005 will see the band release thier first full length album entitled, "waiting..." A very appropriate title indeed, not just thematically, but the fact that we have recorded 3 albums that never saw the public eye, and have spent 3 and 1/2 years recording this one certainly echoes the title.... what are YOU waiting for? |
