Taste Of Fort Collins Band Spotlight: The Heyday
Join us this weekend for the 15th Annual First National Bank Taste Of Fort Collins at Civic Center Park in Old Town Fort Collins. The festivities go on from 11am-9pm on Saturday and 11am-8pm on Sunday. Another one of the great bands to take the stage is Denver Band, The Heyday!
The Heyday will be playing Saturday, June 11th at 2:45
The Heyday formed in the spring of 2006, when singer-songwriter Randy Ramirez and pianist Jeff Appareti parted ways with their former Americana-roots project aptly-named "Like Chasing Wind." Shortly after, guitarist Brian Martin and drummer Sean Bennett began sneaking away from their other bands to develop the Heyday's sound in Appareti's parents'
basement. Spring turned to summer, and Pete Wynn, a friend of Bennett, took over as bassist. The newly formed quintet decided to forego any live performances and write for the remainder of the summer, honing their soulful sound into an honest but radio-friendly new take on rock and roll.
The Heyday Members are:
Peter Wynn: Bass/Vocals
Sean Bennett: Drums
