THE SEARCHERS (American Band)
The line-up in the Sonics stabilized in late 1963 with the addition of three members from another local band called the Searchers (not to be confused with the British Invasion band, the Searchers); their frontman was future Moby Grape guitarist Jerry Miller. Larry Parypa remained on lead guitar, while Andy Parypa switched to bass guitar. The new bandmembers were Bob Bennett on drums, Rob Lind on sax, and Gerry Roslie on keyboards and, later, lead vocals.
