    The Skylarks was initially started in October of 2020 when after several conversations between myself(Rich), Jeff, and Gordon we came up with aset of 12 songs and decided to give it a go. I contacted a buddy who played drums and we had our first rehearsal. It was evident from that get together that we had a connection which had to be there for everyone to make the commitment because of the distance between us. We have different musical backgrounds and interests but we all have one common denominator: we are dedicated to THIS band and no matter what song we bring to the table we are going to give it 110%. So whether it’s Country , Rock or anything in between the audience gets a quality product !
