Electric Omlet

Image of lightningA biographical sketch of the band and it’s members –

Electric Omlet was first formed in the winter of 1989 and has since performed indoor and outdoor shows indulging in their blues/rock/60’s style psycadelia. Initially intended as a trio consisting of the classic Guitar, Bass, Drumsset-up, they most recently added a fourth member to the band. Mr. Fred Ross, keyboardist-vocalist, who adds much dimension to an already unique and powerful trio and is a major part in drastically expanding the bands repertoire.

On seeing the band live one can feel the true energy of soud coming straight from the heart of it’s players. Electric Omlet is well known for their ability to play with much “heart and soul” guarenteeing to make the audience truly feel the music as opposed to being a “human jukebox” as many bands unfortunately to sound.

There is no doubt that the root of the band lies in the rhythm section. With the founder of the band, Barry “the caveman” Ostrov on bass guitar and vocals, in the drivers seat, is sure to be a good time had by all those present. Of course, there would be no beat to bop to without Bob “Bullet” Perlman on drums and percussion. Bob is a valuable addition to the band adding a “fuaion jazz” element to the rhythm section. This awesome player has played and done session work with several top notch players in the New York musician scene. The last to be mentioned on the cast of characters that drives Omlet, is the bands chief organizer: Guitar Player/Vocalist, Carlos Anthony “Axeman” Acha. Best well known his eclectic/metal/rock edge and bluesy tone, this member is the front and center of the band. His credits include work with the Peter Duchin orchestra, Bill Godwin of the Ink spots and The Urban Outlaw Band.

Electric Omlet has played exclusively throughout New York State in clubs, restaurants, social functions and street fairs. They perform original and cover material.
