Galaxy has several originals too. Walking Down Congress is Galaxy's own reinterpretation of John Mayall's classic tune, all about older and weirder Austin!
The band's sound is led by the captivating vocals of Quita Sanchez-Navarro, whose soulful renditions of rock and R&B classics transport listeners straight back to the golden age of rock and roll. Her powerful voice hints at the influences of powerhouse vocalists like Linda Ronstadt and Stevie Nicks, but Quita's sound is uniquely her own.
Complementing Quita's vocals is George Hadash on lead guitar. George is a virtuoso, his skillful finger work and deep understanding of classic rock n' roll have made him a favorite. He is known for his electrifying solos that often leave the audience in awe.
Phillip Fulton, the bassist, lays the foundation of the band's retro sound. His steady rhythm and deep grooves add layers of depth to the band's music, tying together all the elements seamlessly. Phillip's bass lines are the backbone of the band, driving their sound forward and keeping audiences on their feet.
Ken Atwater, the drummer, is the driving rhythm behind Galaxy. His dynamic drumming style, blending both power and precision, brings the energy of classic rock alive. Ken's drum beats are like the heartbeat of the band, pulsating through each song and keeping the band in perfect sync.
Tom Williams, the keyboardist, adds depth and atmosphere to the band's sound with their masterful playing. Tom's skills enable the band to cover a wide range of classic rock and R&B music, from the funky and soulful tunes to the more psychedelic and progressive tracks.
In concert, Galaxy is a sight to behold. They bring not just the music of the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s to life, but also its spirit. Their performances are high-energy, charismatic, and always entertaining. The band's love for the music they play and the era they represent is palpable, making every concert a unique and nostalgic experience.
Galaxy is curator of great songs all audiences will recognize. Our goal is to keep the greatest music of all time alive. Yes, 1950 through today!
After 15 years of playing together, with Quita joining in 2020, Galaxy has honed a tight, cohesive sound that is as authentic as it is enjoyable. Their shared passion for classic rock and R&B music and dedication to their craft has made them a beloved fixture in the South Austin music scene.
