About

"THE RAZORS ROCK...consistently cool music! Check out their next gig and bring friends. Good times !" -- Cerphe Colwell, of Cerphe's Progressive Show.

“If you're looking for a cover band that does it all, then the Razors are ready to rock for you - and do they ever! Jon, Ron, Rich, Charlie, and Steve have a unique blend that few bands can offer. And you will be hard pressed to find five nicer guys who really love what they're doing. The Razors have a sound of their own. Check them out. These guy's are great!!” -- Johnny Holliday, TV Sportscaster, Former Top 40 DJ, and “Voice of the Maryland Terps”

The Razors band is an enthusiastic, experienced cover group doing classic rock, blues, country, dance, and current hits. We are regular players at Clydes in Chevy Chase - and the honorary club band for the Baltimore Yehudim Riders motorcycle club- and have gigged at Flannagan's Harp and Fiddle, the National Press Club (for a 600 guest fundraiser), the Manor Country Club, the Capitol City Brewing Company, Growlers Pub, the Young Presidents Organization annual party, the Loudoun Fox Hunt Club Ball, Meadowbrook Farms Annual Crab Feast, Georgetown University, Dad's Neighborhood Pub, the Outta the Way Cafe, Hank Dietles in Rockville, MD, and many other venues, private parties, and weddings during the past several years. Members are Jon Gadsden on percussion and vocals, Richard Earle on lead guitar and vocals, Ron Cihlar on vocals and bass, Steve Moore on vocals, guitar, keyboards, and harmonica, and Charlie Moore on drums. Our "substitute" lead guitarist, Dave Rodler, has been with us since 2007, and is available to fill-in on gigs, giving the band an added measure of reliability. The Razors specialize in music that isn't overplayed, including ambitious,complicated tunes such as "Jessica" by the Allman Brothers and the Jimi Hendrix version of "All Along The Watchtower" as well as fun ("Secret Agent Man" medley), and dance songs ("Hook," "Shotgun" etc.) With personality, humor - and FOUR voices - we rock hard when necessary, and deliver smooth sounds when appropriate. For weddings and events, we provide a beautiful acoustic set prior to the dance party. We don't hype, we just deliver pro music and crowd enjoyment. Try us out for your next celebration. And thanks for your consideration.
