Bio
In 2003, in Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania, Pat Conaboy (Bass/Vocals) and Kevin Callen (Guitar/Vocals) started a band along with two friends from middle school. After 4 years, maybe 3 shows, and numerous lineup changes, Chee was finally formed. In the summer of 2005, they recruited Tom McAndrew on lead guitar and began playing shows as a power trio with Tom and Kevin on guitar, and Pat on drums. In September of 2006 they recorded and released their first ever record, an EP entitled Sportcoats and Speedos. After which they continued playing local shows to good reception from kids of all kinds. In the very beginning of 2007 they decided it was time to get a drummer, and asked Pat Kirby to try it out for a show. After an excellent performance on such short notice, Pat Kirby was the new drummer of Chee. With their lineup cemented, they began to play more shows and write more songs. In January of 2008 they headed to SubCat Studios in Central NY and began recording their first full length album. The album, to be released in Summer 2008, is called Desperate Green, and is a major step forward for the young ambitious ones. With some regional shows approaching, they hope to spread the Inner-Chee all over the Northeast, and win the hearts of the young and old alike.
