Send us a Text Message.

Vocalist Paula Holmes talks about her early bands while still in school and then joining the Ruby Port Band in 1971 right after graduating from Strong Vincent. Ruby Port became the   house band at the Calabrese Club in Little Italy.  Later she covers her time playing in christian rock band Clockwise and meeting her husband, who was a touring musician at the time. Paula would continue to sing in bands throughout the years and reconnect with some of her former bandmates whenever she would return to Erie.

Listen to Paula on her Soundcloud account.
