MANHATTAN  MEMBERS

 

Gary Hill, from New Castle, Pennsylvania, is bass player for Manhattan.  Gary has been in the entertainment business since the sixties when he was lead vocalist and guitarist for a popular area band called The Graduates.
 
In the early nineties he performed with Silhouettes , spent several years with a rhythm and soul band called Legacy, and enjoyed a brief stint with a Youngstown dance band called Hot Item. 
 
Convinced that vocal harmony was the ticket to entertainment, he was instrumental in the founding of Manhattan.

Meet Rob Verone, rhythm guitar player who sings lead vocals and harmony.  

At one time Rob sang with a small combo called Strangers.  In 1997, like Gary, Rob joined a rhythm and soul eight-piece band from New Castle called Legacy where he was vocalist and guitar player.

An Ellwood City native, Rob is now at home in Verona, PA.

Rob's best quote:   "I really love this job!!"
              ---at Geneva-on-the-Lake to an enthusiastic crowd.

 

 

Sam Argiro has been performing since the age of ten. His solid performances and perfect timing are legendary among area musicians. His experience reflects many styles from jazz to funk to rock.
 
Sammy has performed with bands from Pittsburgh and Youngstown and toured the east coast. His resume includes the area's top bands such as Nation, Modern Man, Legacy and Lexxus to name just a few.
 
Sammy's drive, energy and personality give Manhattan a new thunder and flash.  

Lori Juhn's Pop Music career began in the 80's in Steubenville, Ohio, with the band WindJammer. Lori went on to perform with the widely known doo-wop act The Class of '57 which gave her the opportunity to open for name acts like the Drifters.

In the mid-90's Lori became the central figure and founding member of the long running band GoldieRox. Her extensive vocal and music experience with GoldieRox  helped develop the talent which Lori brings to Manhattan.  In addition to her powerful vocals, Lori is accomplished on saxophone and keyboard. 

Rich Juhn: In the mid 60's, Rich helped found New Breed, one of the area's most successful soul bands where for five years he played concert openers for notables like Martha & the Vandellas, Gary U.S. Bonds, the Marcel's, the Chiffon's, and the Vogues.

 In 1985 Rich came out of retirement to form the dance band Night Moves. He moved on to perform with the doo-wop band Class of '57 out of Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio.

Eventually Rich became a founding member and performer with GoldieRox. Rich is accomplished on keyboard and saxophone (sometimes two at once) and background vocals.
