26! Yes, that's how many years this groove/heavy metal band
from Las Vegas, Nevada, USA has been in existence. They are
NO slouches when it comes to producing great live shows…with
their heavy blend of chugging riffs, deep bass tones, rhythmic
grooves, catchy poetic lyrics, adult-themed fun antics, and, as
they add, “with a haber-dash of melody mixed in.” Even though
I’ve seen Hemlock several times before, these guys are always
full of surprises. And tonight, Chad Smith (vocals, bass) and his
brother Brian Smith (drums), Troy Lee (guitars), and Trevor
Troupe (guitars) thundered through the crowd at House of Bards
in Tucson, AZ.
First thing I need to report is I noticed that their merchandise booth
was almost as big as the stage they performed on. So many nice
things to purchase. They could almost open up their own mini-
store at each show.
