About The OGeeZ
Over the years, neither L.J. Witter nor Steve Gerick realized the other had musical ‘chops’ since they rarely discussed it. It wasn’t until Steve mentioned he played ‘some guitar’ and L.J. said, “Hey, I sing a little” that a seed was planted that grew into an intense collaboration lasting more than a decade.
In 2008, These musical artists decided to create music together and produced their first studio album. Because both Gerick and Witter were well past middle age, deciding on a name for the band was more of a problem than creating music. They settled on The OGeeZ, which in modern parlance could mean Original Gangsters, Old Geezers, etc. Since we deemed ourselves more of the latter than the former - The OGeeZ it was!
Their music can only be described as “genre-bending” as their musical tastes explore the boundaries of everything from Blues-Rock music to , Latin, and R&B to Pop, Jazz, and even Rap. As a result of their diverse musical preferences, their fanbase stretches the globe.
The fact that these two are still creating great music at their age is notable, especially L.J. Witter, who is eighty years young! For all who are way past middle-age and love to sing and play music, we hope our music will inspire you to reexamine the boundaries of your artistic talents.
