Details:
Sterling Koch (pronounced Cook) is the steel guitarist and lead vocalist with The Victory In Heaven Band. The band, with Koch on lap steel guitar specializes in a unique brand of funk, R&B/Gospel and sacred steel music. In 2004 Sterling released his fourth solo CD "How I Spent My Summer Vacation." "How I Spent.." is a vocal and instrumental CD of sacred steel music featuring Sterling on the 8 string lap steel guitar. The music on the CD runs the gamut from straight ahead rock to funk to jazz (a great take on the Charles Mingus classic "Good Bye Pork Pie Hat") to R&B balladry (a unique interpretation of the hymn "Jesus, Name Above All Names") to double time gospel music (a full speed version of the Gospel classic "God Is So Good"). Sterling claims his influences from such steel guitarists as Darick Campbell (The Campbell Brothers), Calvin Cooke and Aubrey Ghent.
