The Loose Screws

 

Meet The Band


Rob Russo
Vocals & Guitar

Nickname:  " the glue"

Rob hails from Winfield, Illinois and is the founding member of The Loose Screws. He is the lead vocalist and rhythm guitar player for the band. Rob has been playing music in the Chicago-land area for the last 20 years. He started out playing solo acoustic gigs until the formation of The Loose screws circa 1993.  He is partial to spending warm summer nights with his wife Karen, cold beer and  Gibson,Fender and Martin guitars.  

 

 

Dan Swanson
Drums/Percussion & Vocals  

 Nickname: " Dangerous" 

Dan is easily the most exciting and energetic man in the band.  He is an avid record collector and knows almost every song ever recorded.  At any moment Dan can burst into songs from Bread to Iron Maiden! Dan provides the big beat and awesome vocals for the band! He previously jammed with the band “Gigglewater” before becoming our BEAT master.

 

                                            

 

Errol Brown
Bass Guitar   

 Nickname: " Downtown" “LeRoy”

After filling in for our original bass player for years, Errol is now a permanent fixture of the band as bass player extraordinaire!  Errol lays down some great grooves and gets the butts a shakin’ to his bass guitar! A fine brewmaster as well, one can usually find Errol sipping on a quality beer during one of our breaks. You can see him playing a bass or drinking one!

 

Damon Fisch
Keyboards   

 Nickname: " The Fish" 

Webster’s dictionary defines Damon as more of a lifestyle than an individual. Synonymous with International Sex Symbol, Party-God, Attorney! In any case all of the above apply.  Damon adds beautiful piano and organ sounds to the band as well as background vocals and some other noises we have not yet identified.  After his failed presidential bid in 2008 as the “First Mexican Jewish” candidate, Damon has settled for the equally prestigious title of Keyboard player for The Loose Screws.

 

Chris Walke

Lead Guitar & Vocals 

Nickname: " the thrill" 

Chris is an original member of The Loose Screws. After playing with the band for years Chris departed to go on to many other successful experiences with numerous bands. We are happy to have him back as listening to him play guitar is truly a pleasure that all should experience in their lifetime. As Chris plays it’s as if you are sitting back in your favorite chair after a long hard day of work. His guitar just soothes the spirit.
