One band, One Goal: Great Music

Keyboards: Patrick Preston
Guitar: Ed Sein
Bass: Monte Skelton
Drums: Chasen Little

Factor:Primo began with 4 separate Evansville musicians that came from different backgrounds and musical styles. They all, however, had one similar thought: they wanted something new. They wanted something that Evansville did not currently have, but desperately needed. Unfortunately, none of these musicians had ever played together before. Until one (rather nerve-racking) day. Monte Skelton had to quickly put together a small group of musicians for an event. After a little time, it just so happened that Chasen and Patrick were available. Shortly before the performance, they got together and came up with a mix of old and new-school songs that they all loved to listen to. The performance was an absolute blast! They had to keep this up. After some jam sessions and a short amount of time, Ed, Chasen, Monte, and Patrick settled on a great list of tunes and finally, a band name. They are able to join their instruments with some digital elements to create a very unique sound that will definitely make you think there are more than 4 people on stage.

#WeRideWhyRadio is a bi-weekly audio magazine hosted by Greg Roth & Dave “The Rocket” Richter. The first episode launched on Friday, October 23, 2020.

#WeRideWhy? There are many answers to that question many ride for a myriad of reasons. 

Of course, cycling is a lifestyle as well. The aesthetic is as important as the functionality when it comes to bikes, kits, styles whatever. Music and art are part of our culture, because cycling is an art-form. 

Bikes are pieces of art. Like every human being, every bike no matter how old or what style is beautiful and magnificent.

Cycling has altered our lives in a positive way and continues to.We bring what we learn into other areas and share the experience with others.

This inspires people to take action whatever that action is, to new possibilities and ways of being…living our live to the fullest and having communities’ function.

Greg and Dave will chat with interesting guests from the music, art, cycling and athletic world to delve into the intricate and interesting perspectives on training, living, overcoming obstacles, fulfilling on commitments and having success (in whatever way you define it) in life. 

We look forward to riding with you on this journey and thank you for listening!
