Buffalocomotive is an American rock band formed in 2012, in Joliet, Illinois–a suburb of Chicago. The founding members, bassist/lead vocalist/lyricist Brahm Taylor and guitarist/backing vocalist Marc Kaducak, have been collaborating musically since 1987. The duo has teamed with a number of percussionists including drummer Scott Carneghi who joined Taylor and Kaducak to form a power trio, even prior to the Buffalocomotive moniker, after completing the final leg of the 2003 Ozzfest Tour with Grade 8. The current lineup includes drummer Jim Shea. Buffalocomotive released their debut album Tears Of The Enchanted Mainframe in August 2012. History Formation Founding members Brahm Taylor and Marc Kaducak remained a collaborative constant throughout several musical projects in the Chicago area before recruiting former high school classmate Carneghi into the fold. In the early 1990s Taylor and Kaducak entered into an artist development deal with Al Jason and Peter Katsis, along with other up and coming Chicago artists Tung Twista and Monster Voodoo Machine, engaging in extensive recording sessions at Battery Studios Chicago under the tutelage of Ministry drummer and mixing engineer Stephen George. During this time Scott Carneghi had relocated to Los Angeles, California where he replaced Brad Wilk as the drummer for Greta in 1991, when the latter left to join Rage Against the Machine. In 1993 Greta signed a two album deal with Mercury Records In 2002 Scott, Brahm and Marc entered Star Trax Recording in Crestwood, Illinois to record a four song demo with engineer Jeff Luif. They shared the facilities with Chicago alumni Enuff Z'nuff who were recording the album Welcome to Blue Island at the time. Buffalocomotive was the subject of a promotional photo shoot on September 7, 2005 in Las Vegas, Nevada that included several shots in and around the home and vehicle of actress, songwriter and all-time girlfriend of Ed Wood, Dolores Fuller. Fuller, who was portrayed by Sarah Jessica Parker in Tim Burton's 1994 Wood biographical film Ed Wood, can be seen lifting a roll of carpet in her driveway on the band's official homepage. From September 22 to September 30 of 2006 the band consulted with music producer Michael Wagener to record several demo tracks at Accept guitarist Wolf Hoffmann's horse ranch in Nashville, Tennessee. In July 2015 Chicago studio drummer Jim Shea, now living in San Diego, joined Buffalocomotive after a former guitar student of Brahms' introduced them. Tears Of The Enchanted Mainframe In
