BIOGRAPHY:
FELIX & THE HURRICANES – A CATEGORY 5 MUSICAL STORM By Jim Price, PA Musician, Q94, Rockpage.net You might have heard in last month's news headlines that Hurricane Felix, at one point category 5 in strength, caused stormy conditions along the Central American coast. Closer to home, a group of Hurricanes led by a Felix has been creating stormy blues rock conditions on regional stages for nearly two decades. A workhorse band that plays well over 200 shows a year, Felix & the Hurricanes have long since become a west-central Pennsylvania institution, and a name synonymous with exciting performances, stellar musicianship, and good times. The group's namesake and leader, guitarist and singer Felix Kos, first formed the Hurricanes in 1989. The current edition of the group; Felix, bassist and singer Jeff Clapper and drummer Bob Watters; first played together in 1991. Both Bob and Jeff eventually departed the band for a few years to pursue other projects, but reunited with Felix in 1998 and have been going strong ever since. The group issued their first studio album, The Feeling, in 2001; and their follow-up, Travelers Not Forgotten, two years later. A third album is currently being recorded, with a possible release before year’s end.
