The New York state-based fusion group the Everyman Band began their existence in the late '70s as the backing band to Lou Reed. Featuring David Torn (guitars), Marty Fogel (saxophones), Bruce Yaw (bass), and Michael Suchorsky (drums), the group released their eponymous debut in 1982. Featuring Torn's unique and heavily processed style of playing, the Everyman Band toured Europe to acclaim. They returned with the more experimental Without Warning in 1985. ~ Geoff Orens
