If you haven't seen Jeremiah & Tandem perform, you don't know what you are missing. Come out and see for yourself!

JEREMIAH has sang and performed since his early childhood. Jeremiah’s father played 5-string banjo and Jeremiah recalls his father pickin’ on old country and bluegrass while Jer sang into the wee-hours of the morning.  This was the start of Jeremiah’s passion for music. Another early musical influence was Jeremiah’s late grandmother. She played popular and secular music on the keyboard throughout the 1950’s to mid 1980’s in the Lehigh Valley, PA area. Performing at family gatherings in his early adolescents and then in various rock bands throughout high school and college, Jeremiah believes he received his real education in the working class drinking establishments throughout the Northeast.

Musical style influences include; soul, southern- rock, country, classic rock, and R&B. Artist influences include anything from Willey Nelson to Kid Rock. Jeremiah plays a Washburn acoustic guitar, Telecaster electric guitar, and a Yamaha P-88 Keyboard.

CURT started playing music at the age of five. His first musical influences were his father, Curt Sr., and his father’s friend, Bobby Hunsicker. The first live performance “band job” for Curt was at the age of eight and he later opened for Willie Nelson at the age of 11. He has played in many bands over the years, however most notably; Country Express, Borderline, Twitty Fever and now Tandem. Curt enjoys the upbeat and progressive arrangements as well as the creativity involved in planning and implementing new material into Tandem’s live show.

Curt uses Schecter, Ibanez, and Coplay Guitars. Curt also uses Galien Kruger, SWR, and Hartke amplifiers with 4 by 10 cabinets. 

 JEFF would be quick to admit that he would have never guessed his adolescent years of music lessons would lead to performing for 25+ years in the Northeast, originating in the Lehigh Valley of PA.  Jeff’s evolution of performing professionally started with Country (Southern Reign), then to Top-40 R&R (Horizon, Ryno, Nite Flyte) and returning to Country (Sierra, Jesse Wade Gang, Twitty Fever, Cimarron, Tandem).  Jeff’s desire to pursue music is attributed to the enjoyment of performing with talented musicians and most importantly, the approval by his wife. 

Jeff’s current keyboards are Yamaha S90, Roland XP80, Hammond XM1 and Motion Sound KP200 amp.   No need to mention all the equipment bought, sold, trashed, given away, traded or stored somewhere over the years.   

KEVIN has been playing the drums since the age of 9.  He has played all genres from oldies to hard rock to country.  With over 15 years of experience performing with various bands, Kevin was ready to “hang up his sticks” until he had the opportunity to join Tandem.  In Tandem, Kevin has the freedom to be creative and once again enjoys performing.  He adds lead and harmony vocals and is involved in song selection, stage production, and merchandise.

Kevin’s influences are Buddy Rich, Neil Peart, and John Bonham. While Kevin always “needs” new equipment, he currently plays Mapex drums and prefers Paiste cymbals.

In addition to performing, Kevin also teaches drums and works with the school district’s concert, marching, and jazz bands.

DAVE has been playing guitar since he was 6 years old and started playing in bands when he was 12. His first job was an elementary school assembly and from there it was high school dances, pool parties and any other opportunity to play. His early influences were Rick Nelson, The Beatles, Eric Clapton, James Burton, Led Zepplin, the New Riders and a slew of others too numerous to mention. He enjoys playing all types of music including folk, bluegrass, country, blues, rock and even heavy metal. He is constantly amazed at the wide range of sounds and moods you can coax out of a guitar. To Dave, playing guitar is a lifelong passion. The bands he has played in are The Country Strangers, Sierra, Mesa, Phoenix Fire, and Tennessee Tradition. The opportunity to play with top notch musicians is what keeps Dave playing in Tandem. He mostly plays Fender and G&L Guitars and an Emmons pedal steel. These are played through Mesa Boogie and Crate amplifiers.
