THE QUAKES

The Quakes started in the fall of 1986 in Buffalo, New York. 
The original members were Paul Roman on guitar and vocals, Dave “the ace” Hoy on drums and Rob Peltier on upright bass.

In the beginning The Quakes were playing neo rockabilly in the vein of The Stray Cats,Rockats and Polecats.
Out of frustration with a lack of response locally,The Quakes started to play a lot faster and more aggressive adding punk
elements to their music. The look went from pegged pants and bowling shirts to ripped jeans and combat boots.
From that point on the band would be know as a psychobilly band.

In June of 2017, a documentary was made by Paul Roman chronicling the bands early days and was released
on YouTube. The digital single “Psycho fest” was also released. In October, The Quakes Headlined the Tawastia Stomp in Finland.

The new single “Winter Drag” was released in January of 2018. A video for the song was shot in Flagstaff AZ. In
April, The Quakes played in Las Vegas and then headlined the Mayhem festival in Los Angeles. In July,
they were one of the headliners at the Psychobilly meeting in Spain.

In 2019, The Quakes played in St.Petersburg and Moscow Russia. It was the first time the band had played there in
13 years.
