Kool Shades is a six-piece band with members divided equally from local high schools - Tucson High and Salpointe Catholic. Their style contributes a variety of musical genres including ska, reggae, progressive, dancehall, dub, electronica and more. They have been creating music since January of 2004 when guitarist/vocalist Moss Worthington and drummer Nick Tkachyk (former members of The Cause and Grilled Cheese Sandwhich) decided to form a band and paired up with bassist Sean McEvoy, saxaphone/trombone/vocalist Greg Stanley, and trumpet Clay Gibson. Not too long after, trumpet/keyboardist Aiden Fishbein was added to the band. They continue to make music today with a selection of demos, live recordings, and now a full length cd - Live! From the Sun, under their belt.
Kool Shades has played in bars, churches, roads, garages, living rooms, backyards, cafeterias, culdesacs, high schools, middle schools, elemetary schools, local tv and radio shows, and more. They have had the pleasure of playing with the likes of Streetlight Manifesto, Catch 22, Dan Potthast of MU330, Ryanhood, Whole Wheat Bread, many outstanding local acts, and more.
