Joe Calarco and Ed Wallo are long time friends and have worked together in a different cover bands and projects in the Philadelphia/suburban area. Most recently they have been resurrecting classic and modern rock favorites in an acoustic duo. Not professional musicians, they simply enjoy playing and sharing great music with friends in a variety of venues. They have performed in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey at coffee houses, churches, business functions and outdoor festivals. If you are interested in having them perform, contact Ed directly at edwallo@gmail.com.
