Out Of The Basement

WATCH OUR VIDEO

Our beginning- Fall 2003

What started out as 4 guys getting together to play rock music “in the basement” evolved into a successful 20-year music adventure for the Shoreline based rock band “Out Of The Basement”.

After several weeks of jamming, we were excited to take the next step of playing for some of our close friends to see if we had what it took to play out at public venue’s.  After performing our “12 songs” it was unanimous that we were ready to play out and now we needed to name the band. Our friends wrote some down and put them in a hat where Louise Kemler’s “Out of the Basement” became the clear winner.

Our first gig came as suddenly as did the sudden death of Ritchie Hotes our bass player. Richie was a prominent Dr. at New Britain Gen Hospital. In honor of Ritchie, we were asked to play at the event commemorating his passing where his son Todd Hotes quickly learned the bass parts never having played the bass in his life.  It was a small miracle.
