George Skelly

Lead and rhythm electric guitars

George Skelly plays lead and rhythm electric guitars with Snow Crow as often as possible, 'cause Snow Crow rocks! (and folks?). George's leads scream or soar on the hot numbers, are tasty when cool, and rhythm ranges from solid rock, to reggae to funk, or just good time on the Crows' more traditional numbers. George has played guitar in bands of every stripe for several decades (from folk-rock to Allman Bros., from funk to punk, from New Age to fusion, disco to techno - but no rap). But he also records techno-dance-trance-electronica under the band-name "NOCOVER" in his high-tech digital studio. George's 2 most recent CDs have both won huge critical acclaim, including 5-star reviews from international rock-critics for 2006's FORGET, and winning KeyBoard Magazine's coveted "Unsigned Artist of the Month" in August 2003 for WAY. SoundCheck Magazine said: "That's right folks, I gave this CD four stars! Every once in a great while one comes across a CD that just has everything going for it: the music kicks ass, the lyrics are perfect, the mix is outstanding, and the overall production is obviously a labor of love. WAY is one such CD. To my mind, there isn't a weak tune on the CD." Metronome called it "the adrenaline rush of your life." NOCOVER CDs are available on Amazon.com under the name NOCOVER.

George also co-hosts an on-line poetry small "press" with his wife, Margaret, at www.nocoverpress.com (that one is .com), where you can find works by contemporary greats including Robert Morgan, Joan Houlihan, and Jeffrey Harrison.
