The VeLMAs - American for Rock

Since 1999, the Velmas - bassist Todd “Figaro” Minnick, guitarist Mike “Harvey” Grosshandler and drummer Michael “Bruce” Bruce - have been entertaining upstate New York. The band has become a favorite around Albany and Syracuse, NY, and is gaining popularity throughout the Northeastern U.S.

In 2002, the Velmas released their debut album, Another Day At School. Since its release, the album has received rave reviews and has opened doors of opportunity for the band. This was followed by Recess (2004), a “double EP” featuring new and unreleased studio tracks, as well as several live tracks. The Velmas' second studio album, Station, will be released internationally on City Canyons Records in 2006.

The Velmas are three singers and songwriters creating powerful rock music. Their sound is influenced by old-school to modern rock, punk, reggae, and even country and classical. In concert, the Velmas back their music with a playful, high-energy live show, which is the reason why Albany-area "Velmites" have voted them the Capital Region’s "Best Alternative Band" (Metroland, 2006).

  • friggin' awesome

    Great CD. I had heard of the Velmas, only by name and not music. But once I heard "Clue" and "I've Been Thinking" at Larkfest 2006 for the first time, I wanted to buy the album. Stupidly I didn't buy it from them at the time, so I bought it online. But it was worth the few extra dollars because every song is catchy, upbeat and entertaining. I'm definitely a fan.

    From the opening bell, this a great CD. The guys come across like they were having fun recording the tracks and it shows. A fantastic first record from a very talented band.

    The cd is cutting edge rock. Not too head banging but enough to keep you rocking. I own 2 copies one for the car and one for the house. I personally can't pick a favorite. Love this CD...
