Kindred Souls consists of six guys from the New Jersey - New York area, formed by Lon Bachrach and Jeff Rafferty in June 1999. The band performs all original rock 'n roll with a blend of blues, pop, and rock.

Jeff Rafferty - Vocals
As the band's singer, songwriter, and frontman, Jeff combines strong vocals and insightful lyrics to create powerful emotions in his music. Having been performing professionally since childhood, his talents as a vocalist and as a showman are unsurpassed.

Lon Bachrach - Keyboards
Pianist, organist, composer, arranger and co-songwriter. Lon's drive and enthusiasm pushes the band to consistently grow within the music.

Stan Q. Adams - Bass
As bassist extraordinaire, Stan lends a sense of melody and heart that few bass players can achieve. He is adept at staying in the pocket and bringing out the best in the band's rhythm section.


Paul Lavenhar - Drums
A backbeat devotee, Paul has kept in the pocket with Philadelphia Sound disco recording stars First Choice, The Platters 50s Review, The White Heat Show band, and the rock band The Free Radicals.


Ted Heman - Guitar
Formerly of the Joan Caddel Band, Ted is a multi-instrumentalist whose playing takes inspiration from the rock sounds of the Beatles to the soulful sound of Journey's Neal Schon.


Jeff Samet - Guitar

Equally adept on acoustic or electric guitar, Jeff Samet comes to Kindred Souls from The Brooklyn Guitars - an eclectic and unique mix of New York City's rising guitar talents.
