NORWICH — Local blues rock group the Nate Gross Band will be performing at 4 p.m. on Saturday, May 25 at Hidden Springs Brewhouse, located at 170 Country Road 31 in Norwich.
The band is made up of lead singer and guitarist Nate Gross, Patrick Corbet on bass, Bo Matheson on drums, and Ben Gross on keyboard.
"We call it blues rock. It’s blues, but we kind of kicked it up," said Nate Gross. "When you’re brought up in the 80s and 90s you have a totally different view on rock and roll and everything, so that kind of comes out, and people like it ... They're kind of relating to these retro sounds, but they like the fresh vibe that we try to add to it, bringing in blues influences and whatnot."
Fans might be able to catch some songs from the band's album "Raw Turkey," which was recorded live the night before Thanksgiving at the Blarney Stone Pub in Norwich.
"We recorded it live and it was really raw, all of the mic cables died that we brought. Everything that could have gone wrong, went wrong. But I still was going to release it anyway, and everybody kind of loved it," said Gross. "The sound was horrible and everything, but the performance was really cool, and there was just this raw energy, and you could really hear the audience on the recording, like right down to hearing tables close to the stage talking. But it just made a really neat energy."
