THE EARLY YEARS,

**Retrofeelya Retro-Fan Page**

Retrofeelya are a retro-rock band based out of Poughkeepsie, NY. I first learned of them, while checking out another band at a bar in Newburgh, Whiskey Ally's. These guys won me over instantly. I have seen them perform at several venues in just the first year alone. When they noticed how I always took lots of photos of them and would share these photos with them, we eventually became friends. I was even privileged to do a photo shoot with them at the lead singer's home.

In 2017, the band was given an opportunity to travel to Los Angeles, California, to perform on tour at the famous Whiskey-A-Go-Go venue. It was a place that many popular rock bands have played during their early beginnings. It was something they could not pass up. However, this golden opportunity led to a life-changing decision, which resulted in the unfortunate departure of guitarist, Michael Wunderlich. The band had decided to relocate to California. In April of the same year Frank Bohr was brought in to replace Mike. On June 8, 2017 the band headed out west to pursue their dreams by starting a new chapter in their lives.

I am disappointed I did not have a chance to see them one last time before they left. I can only hope they find their way back to New York someday as a successful band with the wealth and fame they deserve. I know in my heart, I will see them, again. Good luck, my friends.

I have to say, I love these guys, I love their music, and I love the energy they put into their performances. They are great entertainers. This is a dedicated band of talented young men that should be known world-wide.

It is unfortunate I never got the chance to photograph the band with Frank on guitar. I am sorry for that. It is because of this I decided to keep my fan page dedicated to their early years, which for me was a very special time. It is when I became aware of their existence and when we became friends, but most of all when they began to grow into the fantastic entertainers they are today.
