Schwannoma

Primarily a rock quintet from Upstate New York, Buffalo's Night Life Magazine Top Original Alternative band of 1999 has sometimes employed upwards from as many as 10 musicians-all with histories reaching back into some of that area's favorite local bands- under the Schwannoma moniker at any one time. Their mix of committed musicianship and power rock presence has earned them praise as one of Western New York's most promising bands. Following a 1995 audio-cassette recording of Schwannoma Funkie, the group released The Cure for Parantinitis in 1997 and Cancer in the Groove in 1998.
