This week I sit down for a mid-morning chat with Derek Henry, lead vocalist and one-half of the band that is Observe the 93rd. We talked about everything we could possibly think about, and even had some background jams provided by PA based punk pop band Headways: https://linktr.ee/headwayspa
Observe the 93rd was voted 2021 Best Alternative Rock Band and Derek received the award for Best Male Vocalist at the Central Pennsylvania Music Awards.
Observe the 93rd is an alternative rock band from Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. It's comprised of vocalist/guitarist Derek Henry and drummer Dylan Zepp. Their focus will always be "raw, authentic expression." The songs are guided by a feeling, an idea, an experience, failure, triumph, suffering, joy...any abstract internal entity that yearns to be externalized. Sometimes the expression of this is a means of reflection, sometimes a means of relief and survival, and other times merely an exploration of the mind or ideas.
Observe has played shows with: Foxy Shazam, Fuel, Three Days Grace, Stone Temple Pilots, Seether, Puddle of Mudd, Otherwise, Flyleaf, Lacey Sturm, Cold, Sponge, Drowning Pool, Saliva, Joyous Wolf, From Ashes to New, P.O.D., Icon For Hire, Conquer Divide, The Funeral Portrait, Rivals.
