The Attachments exude guitar-driven rock and pop with great hooks and vocal harmonies. We cover great songs from: the roots rock of Mellencamp, Hiatt and Petty; the textured soundscapes of Crowded House; the driving energy from the Pretenders and Spin Doctors; and a bevy of Canadiana rock from The Tragically Hip, BNL, Blue Rodeo, The Odds and Sam Roberts.
The band brings a variety of influences to their sound, and audiences are in for a dose of great stage chemistry and that electricity that comes with taking great music to sometimes unpredictable, exciting places.
So whether you like to dance or just sit and listen, The Attachments want to make it oh so hard for you to not shake or tap some part of your body.
The Attachments are Ben Ballon, Mark Vukas, Lee Ann McLellan & Don Wilson.
