About the Band
Bursting with a powerful fusion of blues, The Movers will get your pulse racing and your feet tapping! Born from the musical kinship of guitarist John “Shadow” Stiles and vocalist Sean “Earthquake” McCue, the band's roots trace back to Newark, NY. Back then, the synergy with original members Lyle “Fud” Comstock and Howard “H” Derue sparked a sonic revolution that still vibrates to this day.
The groove deepened when Shadow's prodigious son Anson added his unique brand of electric bass. And then, the rhythmic puzzle came full circle with the addition of John Chaffer on drums. This dynamic squad was fully formed in 2020, showcasing their resilience and unbreakable spirit by keeping the rhythm alive through the pandemic.
The Movers' journey, punctuated by countless mesmerizing shows, has served as a springboard, inspiring them to aim higher, push boundaries, and reach even more music enthusiasts around the globe. As the band expands its sphere of influence, the spotlight shines brighter on the founding members, whose enduring talent and charisma defy the passage of time.
The Movers are not just a band. They're a living testament to the timeless power of music, a legacy they’re eager to share before Father Time turns the page. So come along! Experience the rhythm, feel the beat, and be part of this exhilarating musical journey!
