Classic and modern rock from the 50’s through 2000’s and beyond! Get Humenized!
Inducted in 1995, Buffalo Music Hall of Fame Band, Only Humen has been rocking WNY, PA & Ohio since late 1986. Hailing from Buffalo, NY, the greatest city on earth, they are arguably one of the tightest, polished outfits in the area and please crowds of all age groups and backgrounds. Clubs, concerts, private parties and equally comfortable with weddings, corporate, casinos, theme parks, church, fireman & police functions – Only Humen has done it all.
They have also been the chosen opening act for such notables as The Little River Band, Molly Hatchett, Marshall Tucker Band, BTO, The Sawyer Brown Band, Blake Shelton, Gary Richrath/REO Speedwagon, Foghat, The Mamas and the Papas, The Byrds, The Drifters, The Platters, The Coasters, Del Shannon, The Association, The Marvelettes and Herman’s Hermits to name a few. The list goes on and on. Their ability to form fit to a crowd and work the room is uncanny, often creating the illusion of six or more people on stage to produce the full sound which has become their trademark ‘humenized’ sound and winning them over 25 BMA competitions!
Playing hits by The Beatles, CCR, Bob Seger, The Eagles, Neil Young, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Tom Petty, Van Morrison, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Led Zeppelin, The Doobie Brothers, Three Dog Night, John Mellencamp and everything in between, Wild Cherry, The Commodores, Neil Diamond, The Foundations to more current groups like The Tragically Hip, Jet, James, 3 Doors Down and U2 keeps them in the forefront of the WNY area music scene. Coming from the city that spawned the likes of other Buffalo Music Hall of Fame artists- The GooGoo Dolls, Billy Sheehan, Spyro Gyra, Ani DiFranco, 10,000 Maniacs, Rick James, Harold Arlen (yes, “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” Dorothy) and a parade of others, that is quite the accomplishment.
The trio’s stage show has a blend of polished three part harmonies, unparalleled tight musicianship, humor and high energy that keeps the audience’s satisfied at any event. As an added bonus they bring out a “secret weapon”, a fourth member to blow sax on special occasions.
Only Humen boasts the implementation of the all new innovative, technically advanced BOSE L1 PA System which has a remarkable sound and an easy, portable “all in one” time saving setup and tear down. Also in the works is a new lighting show by Color Kinetics featuring LED’s with a seemingly endless variation of scene programming and colors.
While still mainly a “cover” band, Only Humen has recorded three original CD’s over their 18+ years in existence. (Four if you count the unreleased “Bluebird” album recorded at The Power Station in New York City-1995.) “Only Humen So ‘R’ U”-1989, “Six of One-A Half Dozen of the Other”-1997, and “Slightly Twisted Fiction”-2001, all for the indie label, Lionsheart Records America.
