Give us a brief history lesson on the band. When and where did you get start-
ed?
Four of us went to high school together in Fayetteville and formed a band
then in 1973. Who would have thought we would be back together again after all
these years? We got back together in May of 2006 to play a gig that my brother
had booked in Raleigh. We had so much fun and sounded so good we didn't want
that to be the end so we added another guitar player and away we went.
How did the band
get its name?
I sat down
and wrote down
some names that
tried to capture
what I felt the
band was about. I
presented a short
list to the group
and we unani-
mously chose
"Cool Heat."
How would
you define your
music?
Classic R&B and Funk
Who are your favorite bands/influences on your music?
Earth, Wind & Fire / Tower Of Power / Chicago / Motown
Do you write your own music and where does that inspiration come from?
Although two of us write our own music, Cool Heat plays covers. We would
like to add our own material soon.
If you only had two words to describe your band what would they be?
Passion & chops
What are your hopes/goals for the future of your band?
I would like to see the band have more name recognition and be one of the
favorite groups in the area. This should help us with more bookings, which we
need right now.
Where do you see the band five years, 10 years from now?
I would like to see the band write and arrange some original music within five
years. I would also like to have a recording contract with a label that can appreci-
ate our style of music and what we can bring to the music industry. In 10 years,
some of us will be in our mid-60s and we hope to continue performing this age-
less music.
