BIO

With a strong classic rock background, the band is on a mission to preserve the classic rock sound not only by catering to the classic rock era listeners, but also pitching it to the uniformed listener.  Many music listeners get entangled in lyrics, and it is the strong lyrical contents powered by the rhythm of 2 Taks Back that will capture audiences.

2 Taks Back was founded in 2010 by two friends (Curtis Hartsook & Chris Dunlap) who in their words “were tired of playing other people’s music.”  They both felt they had something to give to the music world, and so their journey began.

Their first CD, Coming Home Again, was released in August of 2012.  The band has plans to have their second CD finished in 2013.

Now that the band has released their first CD, they plan to perform more while continuing to record.  With comments from several fans stating the band reminds them of Tom Petty, 2 Taks Back takes that as a compliment……enough of a compliment to drive their goal of “Saving Classic Rock.”
