Dave and Tom Sulentic from South Bend, Indiana, founded The Sulentic Brothers Band in 1993 with the goal of creating a band that concentrated on playing and writing their own music. With that in mind, they had an old friend that played guitar like a dream that they considered immediately for the band--Mike May. However, they had lost contact with him and with some searching on Tom's part, they found Mike and were thrilled when he agreed to be a part of the band. Now, with Mike and Dave on lead and rhythm guitars and Tom on the drums, the search for a bass player began. Finally, Jim Robinson, one exceptional bass player fit the bill and the personality of the group perfectly. Then the time came for the daunting task of finding a vocalist. It was Jim's foresight that made the search an easy one. Bringing Cliff Schooler to the band--a vocalist, guitarist and harp man. Filling out the band with his vocal talent and song writing abilities is Dave Lynch making the band a full rounded sound. Thus, with a lot of hard work, a little searching, and a little luck The Sulentic Brothers Band was formed.
The Sulentic Brothers Band's music is a unique combination of styles and ideas. These styles and ideas form a band with the incredible ability to write music all their own. All members of the band take an active part contributing to the writing of their music. To date the band has written over 90 original songs and they play numerous cover tunes as well. Since the band's formation the members have demonstrated a unique dedication to the writing and playing of their music. Moreover, the quality of music this band produces shows a distinct chemistry among all the members. The band continually strives to exploit their music, and are willing--in fact--anticipating opportunities to tour as well as taking other avenues to promote their material.
They were together three months when they recorded their first CD, titled "The Past", recorded and their second CD, "The Prisoner" a year later. In 2003 they released "South Bend" which received great reviews here as well in Europe. The guys are presently recording their follow-up CD which is scheduled for an early 2005 release. |
