Estes Brothers

Lodi, Ohio 1970-3+ The Estes Brothers band grew from three brothers, Joe, John, and Jerry Estes. John played guitar, Joe played drums, and Jerry played keyboards. At some time they added Don Smith on bass. Bill Marren, from the Unknown Kind, took over on keyboards. Not sure if Jerry played keyboards before or after Bill Marren was in the band. The band was from a rural area and didn't have the opportunities to play like bands in Lorain/Elyria to the north. In 1971, the band recorded an LP and a label from Cleveland called Transitions, and a label called Edcom released it. The group also released a 45 that included an excellent hard rock song called "Tomorrow's Sunlight".
