Doorway 27

In the spring of 1996 the hand of fate brought 4 individuals an event that would change their lives forever. The conception of Doorway 27 in June of 1996 created a much needed and well-deserved emotional outlet for these four young South Florida musicians. Angel Luis Lozada, a veteran drummer from area bands Spice and Green Eden, hails from Santurce Puerto Rico. Angels' Latin-jazz style is a prominent force in the structure of Doorway 27's writing. Chris Cartrett, lead guitars, and Bryan Wohlust, lead vocals & keyboards, from West Palm Beach's "Box" (91-93), lay down the melodies and harmonies of this unique quartet who have been compared to the likes of U2, 311, and Incubus to name just a few. The inevitable last ingredient belonged to the punch-crush sound of Max Fraser on bass, a long awaited newcomer completing the sound that has come to be known as Doorway 27.
