The KBC Band was formed in 1985 by former Jefferson Airplane (later Jefferson Starship) members Paul Kantner (guitar and vocals), Marty Balin (vocals and guitar) and Jack Casady (bass). Other members included Keith Crossan (saxophone, guitar & vocals), Tim Gorman (keyboards and vocals), Mark ‘Slick’ Aguilar (guitar and vocals) and Darrell Verdusco (drums). Their debut LP, “KBCBand”, featured the hit “America”, which found renewed interest after the September 11, 2001 attacks.
