Artist History Snakes & Ladders got together as a three piece in 1998. The group played around the Worcester and Blackstone Valley area, releasing an early demo called "Preview." After a short recess (due to a nerve injury in Steve Blake's hand and the departure of bassist Dean McQueen) the remaining players decided to conscript Peter Zolli (old friend and former Narcotic Effect/Roy Hinkley bandmate) and make the record "Come Out & Play." The record was completed in the Fall of 1999 however there were post-production delays in it's release. The CD is finally available. Noah Dennis joined Snakes & Ladders in September of 1999. The group has just finished recording their new CD "Staring At The Sun.

Group Members At the present time: Steve Blake - Vocal, Guitar, Noah Dennis - Bass Guitar, Greg Sullivan - Drums, Percussion
