Stone Groove Stone Groove has a sound that will leave you "flat against the wall at the back of the room." Their influences range from the mighty Zeppelin to the Fab Four, from Black Sabbath to Bob Dylan, from Robert Johnson to John Prine to Nine Inch Nails...well, you get the idea: they listen to a lot of music. Each member is a valuable piece of the composite machine, and lends his own personal background to the music you can't help but love. stonegroovemusic@excite.com Craig Chapman has been living the blues (and playing them) for longer than anyone else in the band. Chappy, as he is known by his friends and fans, has seen almost fifteen years in the music business, playing solo or in bands for nearly half of his life. His earthy, rumbling guitar licks and his soaring, passionate voice are the means through which Stone Groove reaches their audience BILL KURZENBERGER keyboards Bill Kurzenberger has been playing with Stone Groove since the start of Summer 2005. Bill has an extensive background in music having played with such bands as Mullins Band, The Ritchey Brothers, Wazzin, Current, and many more. He also continues to pursue a solo career as well having his own self-produced CD "Suspending Disbelief" which is available in stores and online. Bill has been featured on many websites including RollingStone.com and about anywhere else on the internet. Usually playing on keyboard, Bill also regularly plays guitar and is an established singer/songwriter in the central Ohio area. With Stone Groove he adds a very psychedelic and intense feel and as Chappy put it "sounds like a keyboardist oughta". BASS GUITAR Nat Reeb bass guitar Nat Reeb is the newest addition to the Stone Groove Machine. Nat hails from Granville, OH and does projects from open mic and solo acts as well as playing with other regional acts such as the John Mullins Band. An extremely nice guy, Nat's attitude towards life is reflected in his music.... fun and energetic. drums Christian Gossard played drums for all of a month before he joined the band. In just over four years, he has gone from never hitting a drumhead to creating some of the most inventive, driving, funky beats known to rock n roll. Christian studied such set hitters as John Henry Bonham, Neil Peart, Bill Ward, Danny Carey and Keith Moon, just to name a few influences in his conquest of the drum set. harmonica Rob Shingler is probably the best undiscovered harmonica player in central Ohio, and has brought an element of traditional blues to the band with his Howlin' Wolf/Sonny Boy Williamson (I and II) style playing. He learned to play harp while delivering pizzas, listening to and playing along with the Grateful Dead.
