This whole thing started with a bunch of guys from Kaukauna gathering once and a while to sing some songs and drink some beer. Early in 2006, Billy Schommer joined in with his screaming Eddie Van Halen licks, and a short while later, Billy introduced us to drummer Brian McCoy who brought his smokin' Gretsch set and Neil Peart fills. After a few practice sessions we knew we were on to something, and The Experiment was born.
Our goal is to deliver an entertaining variety of rock and roll music, with a refreshing focus on vocal harmonies and "off-the-beaten-path" selections. Of course, our show has something for everyone with hits from bands like Lynyrd Skynyrd, Barenaked Ladies, ZZ-Top, Tom Petty, the Foo Fighters, and many others. Check out our schedule and have a night out at one of our shows!
