357rocks

Being a part of the Greater Cincinnati music scene, for more than 35 years, it’s only natural that 357 has had a huge following, and much success.

From being invited to be the opening act for the Gregg Allman Band Tour, back in 1984, to playing the identical role with Molly Hatchet, 357 has been rocking with the best of them.

Like most up and coming bands, they finally jelled after a few lineup changes along the way, and then they were everywhere: Northern KY, West Side, East and North Sides, Sawyer Point….well, you get the drift.

Jim Iker (Jimi Cray) on head turning guitar lead and vocals, Dale Lykins (Double D. Snikyl) driving the backbeat, and sharing lead vocals, Pat Semancik on bass, holding down the bottom end, and throwing in some vocals, and finally, Tom Slager with his solid playing on keys to bring it all together.

The stories and gigs have been countless. Their craft honed like all fine journeyman do, hours and hours, gig after gig.  Today they mix a variety of music, including classic rock and the high energy dance music of the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s.  They really appreciate their current fan base and would love to have you join the 357Rocks family.

Now is the beginning of what they all have been dreaming of. It’s 357’s turn to do what they have always been destined to do. Write, record, produce, and make the quality Music Americana, that Midwestern rockers live to do.  Come on out and have a Shot of Rock with the band!
