Brooklyn, NY Rock/Metal Band FEFF To Open for
Alter Bridge, Sevendust in CT

show on July 30th
Brooklyn, NY - High profile
Brooklyn, NY rock/metal band FEFF is slated to
open for two major acts - Alter Bridge and
Sevendust - on Wednesday, July 30th at the
Webster Theater, 31 Webster Street, Hartford, CT
06114. Doors open at 7PM. $25 general admission
- all ages show. FEFF has won numerous awards
including one of the Top 12 Unsigned Bands on XM
Radio, has toured cross-country with
Jagermeister-sponsored band SiX in 2007 and also
toured the Southeast early in 2008.
Imagine this - in a business dominated by
plastic pop stars, ready-made radio hits and
American idols, there's still a hard rock band
doing it all by themselves the old fashioned way
- taking the music to the people, winning fans
face to face, and in the process, earning the
title "The future of Hard Rock" (WRHU 88.7FM).
Not too bad for four boys from Brooklyn... The
story begins in late 2003, when the New York
born and raised Pfeffer brothers Rob (Vocals,
Guitar) and Dan (Guitar) set out to create an
original hard-hitting sound that would
incorporate aggressive melodies, in your face
guitars and ear grabbing, radio-ready hooks,
while still staying true to the band's old
school metal influences. FEFF's lineup
solidified with the additions of Pat Crotty
(Drums), and Adam James (Bass). The band hit the
New York club circuit and beyond with an
incredibly powerful, high energy show that won
them a loyal following of hard rock fans all
over the country.
The band's early demos began receiving
airplay on NYC’s 92.3 K-ROCK. Due to the
overwhelming amount of requests, K-ROCK invited
FEFF to their studios for an on-air interview
with DJ Matt Pinfield. After K-ROCK began
playing FEFF, Q104.3 and 102.3 WBAB followed
suit, putting FEFF among the few unsigned bands
to be played on all three of NYC’s major rock
radio stations. In just a few months the band
sold every copy of their self titled demo, so
FEFF decided it was time to head into the studio
to finally record their full length debut album
“Question The Motive”. Released on Oct. 20th,
2006 to anxiously awaiting fans all across the
world, the new LP further proves that FEFF is a
force to be reckoned with in the hard rock
world. Necessity being the mother of invention,
the label-less band has consistently thought up
cutting edge ways to utilize the internet to get
the CD into the hands of fans worldwide.
Astonishing sales of “Question The Motive”, and
tens of thousands of hits to their website every
day has made FEFF one of the most successful
unsigned hard rock bands in the United States.
Needless to say, this sort of commotion did not
go unnoticed. Sirius satellite radio’s The
Howard Stern Show took a liking to the band and
has consistently plugged FEFF on the air while
also using tracks from the bands brand new album
as bumpers and intros’ to the show. XM Satellite
Radio also jumped on the FEFF bandwagon,
labeling them as one of the top twelve unsigned
bands in the country following a long run as one
of the most played and requested bands on XM
channel 52.
Even with all this, it’s the live show
where FEFF really shines. The band embarked on
their first tour in the fall of 2006, a three
week escapade which brought their raw, energetic
live show to the entire east coast, and to a
sold out New Year's Eve show for 3500 people at
Philadelphia's Tower Theatre with Artie Lange of
the Howard Stern show. FEFF, always looking to
blaze a new trail, performed a 30 date excursion
in 2007 which took them from New York to
California and everywhere in between. Amidst a
mob of apathetic, passionless competitors, FEFF
has proven themselves as a band with the
attitude and the brains to get what they want.
Editor Mike G from Metal Maniacs, said it best;
"They’re smart, they're talented. Those are the
ones who make it, those are the ones who last."
