03/28/2011 - Central Wisconsin band SLAB is Slam Dunk with Surprise Addition
Local rock cover band, SLAB, premiered at The Corral Bar in Abbotsford last Saturday night with a surprising addition to their band, and Slab version 16.0 is even more awesome than they were before.
Together (as Slab) since 1995, original Slab members Todd (lead guitarist & lead vocals) & Troy (bass player) have searched for the right mix of talent & work ethic (minus the oversized egos) to take the band to the next level; it seemed they would never find the perfect drummer or rhythm guitar. In 1997 drummer Al Sternitzky of Marshfield joined the band and it was instant chemistry.
Despite finally finding the perfect drummer, Slab still experimented with a variety of guitar players to add depth to the band. But after several failed matches, Slab decided to take some time off to re-group and decide how they were going to rekindle their enthusiasm & add some new life to their shows.
They say that great things happen when you least expect them....well the addition of a female lead singer was certainly unexpected & based on her performance Saturday night, will be exactly what Slab needed to add some new life to their shows.
Cindy Kearns, newest Slab member, was amazing singing everything from Pink, to Queen, to No Doubt- and she didn't miss a note! I've been a fan of SLab for a long time and the chemistry between Cindy and band seemed so natural- you'd have never known it was her first show with the band. I'm certainly looking forward to more Slab- for a listing of their upcoming shows, visit thier website at http://www.slabrocks.com
Slab will be at the Kruse In, Wausau on April 22nd, and at Rose Bowl, Marshfield, on April 23rd.
