    Artist History
    Blind is an unsigned New York based band that had formed back in 1992 and took several member changes before acquiring the sound and atmosphere they were striving for. Blind consists of: Larry Kelly- Drums, Percussion Eddie Brochardt- Lead & rhythm guitar Preston King- Bass, Vocals Bryan Clay- Lead vocals, Acoustic guitars This band steals the show with high-energy performances accompanied with a great live sound that captivates any crowd. Some of the best performances they delivered were for the WRCN Summer Concert Series at Canoe Place Inn on eastern Long Island. Blind has opened for such bands as Blue Oyster Cult 1996, Great White 1997 and Sebastian Bach of Skid Row 1998. There, some fifty-nine hundred people watched them perform and responded with great reception. The band does not write in any one style as to accommodate each member’s musical influences. Their style contains hints of alternative, hard rock, progressive, into the realm of metal. With a vast pallet of songs it seems Blind can appeal to just about anyone.
