Begun in late 1994 by four doctors and a teacher, 40YOC is still making music 25 years later. Another doctor joined the group shortly after its start, and four of those six members are still together. The band plays an assortment of well-known top hits, primarily of the Sixties and Seventies, along with a few newer songs and an occasional original 40YOC tune from it’s 1998 CD “Long Way to New York City.”
Over the years, 40YOC has opened for many top-selling rock acts including Chubby Checker, Bobby Lee, The Rascals, The Lovin’ Spoonful, Starship, Little River Band, Monkees vocalist Davey Jones, Eagles guitarist Don Felder, and Styx lead singer Dennis DeYoung. Complex multi-part vocals are a defining characteristic of 40YOC’s “sound,” backed by impressive instrumental accompaniment.
