UrbanAcoustic’s founders, Terry Meigel and Joe August, are long-time friends and long-time musicians. They’ve performed together literally hundreds of times, from local acoustic gigs, to Long Island’s hottest clubs (Mulcahy’s, CPI, Claudio’s), and in New York City’s most renowned music venues (The Bitter End, The Wetlands, and CBGBs). The two frontmen bring an enormous amount of enthusiasm to the music. On stage, their experience together is marked by strong vocals, rich harmonies, a diverse library of solid material, and their unique and complimentary guitar work.

The acoustic/electric duo teamed up with Mike Eklund  (percussion).  Mike E and Joe were former band mates in the popular Long Island cover band, Funhouse.

UrbanAcoustic's most recently added player is Mike Borenstein (bass).  Mike B and Terry were also former band mates in another popular Long Island cover band, The Core.

Together at last, this four-piece transfers their own energy and enthusiasm directly to their audience raising the dynamics of the room.

UrbanAcoustic has captured something quite distinct by combining an unplugged feel with a full band sound. Strong musicianship, intense energy, a diverse repertoire, unique sound, and professional attitudes allow UrbanAcoustic to fit into any situation.
