SIR Magazine: where indie and mainstream collide
 
Picture
Thirty years ago, four teens created a band teaching themselves how to play instruments and compose original songs; This is the story of The Knob, who has since become a mainstay in Long Island performing in over 200 area venues. Recently the band released the album Cheap and Easy, featuring a variety of songs that incite moments of musical nostalgia, like the 1950s inspired “The Schuffle”. This song makes you feel like you’re watching an old episode of American Bandstand while dancing in front of the TV. Then there are the late 60s to 70s inspired songs like “One Good Reason” and “The Sun & The Moon”, which take the listener on a reminiscent voyage to the Woodstock era. “Blackheart”, “Footprints in The Snow”, and “Flag Burning Freedom” all remind you of the large stadium rock concerts in the 1980s. So no matter what era of rock that you've enjoyed most, Cheap and Easy proves to be the perfect tool of musical time travel and will have you turning up The Knob on your stereo to maximum levels!
