In early 1974 following a successful career locally
as “Brothers Pride”, the Muench brothers changed
their name to “Munch” and moved to Toronto.
While in Toronto, Munch gained popularity through their
concerts on a local radio station, signed a recording
contract, and released a single (“I Need Some Rock
And Roll”).
Later in 1974, the group moved to Los Angeles to pursue
their career; Peggy Rogers of Dick Clark Promotions
began managing them. Munch became the opening act for
“The Osmonds” on several national tours, as
well as appearing in concert with “The Bee Gees”
and “Andy Gibb”. Munch also appeared with
Dick Clark on the SS Fairseas as the support act for
The Coasters, Gary US Bonds, and Freddy Cannon.
In 1976, Munch signed with Republic Records (owned
by Gene Autry) and released another single (“Comin’
and Goin’); by 1977 an album was recorded that
featured several released singles. The Muench brothers
lived and worked in Los Angeles for many years, and
became a very popular band at resorts throughout the
Southern California area including Palm Springs, Big
Bear, Arrowhead, and Orange County.
Over the years, each brother moved back to the Kentuckiana
area-with music in their blood, the boys decided to
reform the group. Jim Muench, the oldest brother plays
guitar and keyboards, and sings; Don Muench, the middle
brother plays bass and sings; Steve Muench, the youngest
brother plays guitar and sings; Bob Wheatley adds guitar
and sings; the band is rounded out by drummer George
Prentice.
MUENCH performs songs from the last three decades,
with an emphasis on the classic rock of the 70’s
and 80’s-you will hear close vocal harmonies blended
with intricate guitar harmony based music. MUENCH features
the easy guitars and soft rock reminiscent of The Eagles,
The Bee Gees and Jackson Browne plus kickin’ guitar
solos that are guaranteed to have you out of your seat
and up on your feet. It may be “only Rock ‘n’
Roll”, but we guarantee YOU WILL LIKE IT!!
