Artist History Warm Waters is psychedelic-blues-funk-rock-jam band from the Binghamton NY area. The band started playing in the spring of 1998 after a series of jam sessions at a friend's house. The band premiered at the Carpe' Diem Cafe in Binghamton, NY as "The Band With No Name" to a full house in the late spring of '98. They went on to perform shows at the Summer Band Jam in Endicott, NY, Binghamton Met's Stadium, several BC Teen events, the Town of Union Battle of the Bands, and the Endicott Performing Arts Center. After high school, the band took a break while due to the temporary departure of guitarist Louis Pelino (to go away to college). But by the first winter break, Warm Waters was back, performing shows at New Cheers Pub, and The Icehouse. This summer, they guys have been working hard on perfecting their new sound, which has more of a jazz / fussion / funk sound. They are currently taking another break, and working on other projects, but fear not..you can't keep these guys down.

Press Reviews "It has always been my philosophy that, if a band can play a show and out-do their studio recordings, theyare extreme. These guys fit into that category . . . well, they would if they needed to record studio. They have an excellent live sound and are definitely worth checking out." - Myrik's Psychedelic Station Warm Waters have been listed three times in High Times Hemp 100.
