Meet Chinchillas |
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
Chinchillas first got together in the winter of 1985 at Del Pedro's place on Monroe Ave in Rochester, NY. They jammed a while, drank a few beers, thought it sounded good and decided to name the group "Pets and Small Children". They changed the name to "Chinchillas" shortly after. They moved practice to Bill's Corbett's rented house in Mendon, NY and then to Paul's place in Pittsford, NY where they still practice today. After practice on Thursday evenings, you can find them at Thirsty's in the village of Pittsford enjoying their favourite malt beverage. |

Peter Anvelt - Guitar, vocals |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Compositions range from the obvious to the opaque, subjects reflect the poignant mind and meld. Vocal and guitar techniques transcend obligatory bliss. |

Bill Corbett - Bass |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Covering the bass fret board defying contrast, Corbett's style brinks on the sublime and insane. Cackling riffs fill wide spaces of void and clamour. |

Bill Ribas - Lead guitar |
|
|
|
|
|
Known for his searing guitar style and abominable leads, Ribas displays a Euro-sense quasi-French self taught flare that lends itself to sounds that radiate as unheard before. |

Paul Ruske - Drums |
|
|
|
|
|
Began drumming at the age of 1 in Volgograd, Russia, graduating top honours at the Moscow Music Academy. Syncopation anticipation augments every parabolic beat. |
