Meekos and Me was founded by Chicago singer/ songwriter, Joey Colando. In 2008 the fresh indie acoustic duo, backed by electric guitarist Kevin Battle, thrilled audiences across Chicago, playing such legendary venues as The Kinetic Playground. In 2009 Joey moved to Santa Monica, California and reformed the band with classically trained cellist, Danny Grab. Together, they refurbished the already catchy tunes by bringing classical influences and emotional tones from the cello. The combination of classical, jazz, folk, rock, and pop has made Meekos and Me a fresh new sound in California.
