Bees Deluxe Musicians
Carol Band
With a name like Band, Carol had no choice. At 12 she accompanied the Baptist church choir in Connecticut, then moved on to playing folk rock in coffeehouses. She discovered jazz and blues after BB King bought her a drink at Jonathan Swifts in Cambridge and never looked back. She's studied theory with Don Hemwall, she cites Bill Evans, Ray Charles and John Medeski as influences and has graced the stage at many Boston-area clubs including Johnny D’s, Ryles, the Lilypad and The House of Blues.
Conrad Warre
Conrad has lived and played in London, New York, Austin, Paris, and Boston. He's toured around Europe with such bands as The English Beat, Joe Jackson, the Specials, and the Selector. He's played at CBGB's and at the Hammersmith Palais. Responsible for bringing Bob Mould's band Sugar to Rykodisc, he has held various jobs including guitar-player, band manager, special-effects builder, illustrator, music journalist, as well as record company production manager.
Matt Arenburg
From North Attleboro, MA, Matt has played up and down the East Coast (and further) with many original projects as well as countless cover and GB gigs. In addition to performing, he works as a drum instructor, sharing his experience and passion for music with the next generation of players. Growing up on rock music, his playing draws influence from an eclectic range of sounds and players - blending groove, musicality, and creativity behind the kit.
Adam Sankowski
Adam bounced around in basement bands while in music school joining two early 2000's Boston indie troubadours: The Grownup Noise who toured much of the country many times with, and post-punk rockers Horeshands. He divides his time working as a music therapist at Mass General with oncology patients and with special needs students.
