Original Stone Sour drummer to preform at Pitters!

Original Stone Sour drummer Joel Ekman to preform at Pitter's with his new band Isaac James.

On January 22 2011 PITTERS CAFE & LOUNGE will host a show from The Isaac James band. Featuring Joel Ekman former drummer for the grammy nominated band Stone Sour,

Isaac James was formed in the summer of 2008 by members Blackie Starks, Gil Cole, Joel Ekman (formerly of grammy nominated Stone Sour), and John Lillard. Joel Ekman had originally parted ways with Stone Sour in 2006 to take care of his son, Isaac James Ekman who had been diagnosed with cancer. Isaac soon died, and Joel suggested using Isaac James as the band's name in memory of their son. The band agreed, and in January 2009 the band officially took on the name Isaac James.

Too Much Horsepower (2008-2009)

After writing heavily in the fall of 2008, Blackie had contacted major label producer and long time friend, Scott Spelbring (The Speaks, Plunge (band), SR-71 (band), Field of Grey) to produce their debut record, Too Much Horsepower. The 5 song EP was recorded in both Scott's studio in Virginia and in Kansas City studio, Cypher Sound with major label producer Aaron Connor (Black Diamond) engineering. Before the EP's release, the buzz about the new band featuring an ex Stone Sour member, started circling the globe and soon after the band would be doing local and international radio and print interviews and secure distribution in major media outlets including media moguls Best Buy and ITUNES

The first single, 'HEY' is currently in regular rotation on several major FM and satellite radio stations with the help of Protocol Entertainment.

Shut Up and Listen(2010)

The band's first full length record titled 'Shut up and Listen' is currently being written and produced and Scott Spelbring and Larry Gann have both been named as co-producers. The album is scheduled for an early 2011 release.
