SQUASH is a four-piece shredding beast chock full of psychedelic soundscapes mixed with tight grooves and deep pocket bass. Co-fronted by Rhett Hutcheson and Russell Shostak, two seasoned lead guitarists with dynamic chops yet uniquely different solo styles, backed by the rumbling and utterly hypnotic bass playing of Kevin Prusa, held skillfully together by Philadelphia transplant Jeff Shaffer who’s best know for his signature quick-paced trance-like funk and groove rhythms. The resulting sound is what the band describes as “Tasteful Grooves”, a rock/funk/psychedelic experience mixed with a little prog, and a dash of jamtronica for good measure.

SQUASH’s unique combination of rock, groove, funk, and prog puts them in a uniquely versatile position to open for several different artists across a wider spectrum than your average band. Whether it’s a jam-heavy music festival littered with hippies, or a the angsty refrain of the metal/prog scene, fans all over the southeast can find something in common to connect with SQUASH’s infectious melodies and lush grooves.
