                 "A Blast from the Past"

   "from a band with the retro,west coast sound "

The Voltones are a bit of a flashback to the 60's - 70's psychedelic era.

A power trio. there sound is best described as Jimi Hendrix,or Robin Trower on a surf board. They have been around a long time  as a regional act.  The band was formed by guitarist/singer David Harris in 1987 in Vallejo California.  The band currently plays mostly clubs,fairs,festivals,in the S.F. bay area. 

 The bands original materal is  Reminesant of the 60's & 70's west coast/ San Francisco  sound, the Voltones  psychedelic, and  haunting melodies will take you back to the time when music had something  new and mysterious about it. The Voltones  jam on into new frontiers ,then back to places you haven't been in a while. 

the Voltones have a very broad range of styles, some of the tunes sound like early RobinTrower, or Jimi Hendrix,there's flavors of Eric Johnson,Pat Metheny,Cris Issac, This guitarist does it without the aid of a pick!  and,incorperates a barrage of tone from purple vintage Marshalls,and Fender amps.

The band also covers old popular tunes in their own style that range from surfy  w/ a heavy edge.  playing stuff like "Walk dont run,"or pipe line ", with extended variations on themes, into guitar jams ,worm and soulfull .Styles include ...R&B,funk,even western themes ,Fun and silly at times,with Blends of melodys from various songs thrown in for the element of surprize!  The Voltones tunes are fun to dance to, and  it is a blast to see them perform live !
