The Garage Arcade Bar

The Erly is the best band to come out of Michiana, period. These guys are absolutely fantastic. Their sound is bluesy and funky, and their classic rock influences are clearly evident. Colin, lead singer/bassist, is like a strange mixture of Ryan Tedder, Tina Weymouth, and a sober version of Flee. He digs into every performance, and always gives his all. Trevor, lead guitar, is the scholar of the band, and he's obviously schooled himself in Clapton, Frampton and Brian May. Alyssa at the keyboards is the Jillian Gilbert of The Erly, except on top of her dancing fingers, she has a knockout voice that leaves the crowd cheering every time. Last but not least, Fran is the percussion soul of this band, coaxing those skins and driving the beat relentlessly like Stephen Morris. Be it an original song or a cover like Burning Down the House, these guys always bring down the house. You have to check them out while you can because they are going to go far!
