From Yonkers New York,
this dynamic rock/pop band has been
entertaining audiences in the New York
metropolitan area for the past four
years. Led by singer/songwriter/
guitarist Ralph
Conte and Timmy Rehn
on bass guitar, The Fun Guys songs
feature clear, clever lyrics
with exciting vocal performances;
highlighted with rhythmic, melodic bass
lines and tasty guitar parts.
Conte has
been writing songs to rave reviews for
over 15 years and is a familiar face in
the bars and clubs of New York City’s
West Village and Lower East Side.
The group has an extensive
catalog of
original material and is looking for a
major distributor.
The Fun Guys gave high-powered, extremely successful performances at CBGB’s, Kenny’s
Castaways, The Lions Den, The C-Note, The Baggot Inn, and Playland Park
last year and will begin playing live gigs again this spring. Ralph has played gigs with many great NYC musicians over the years including veteran rock guitarist
Doug Walker (formally of the Harry Chapin Band). Conte can be seen performing
both original and cover music all over NYC and the tri-state area. This prolific
songwriter enjoys playing solo acoustic as much as with his band, The Fun Guys, and receives just as many compliments on his
music for his original compositions, as well as his groove oriented arrangements of classic rock and blues
standards.
Their latest CD “Have Pen Will Travel”
features ten new original numbers. They
may be contacted anytime to purchase
CD’s or for gig or fan club information
