Minus Six is a piano-based pop rock group based out of the Quad Cities area. Formed in 2003, the band has produced four studio albums and a live album. Minus Six has not played continuously since 2003, and has taken two hiatuses - for three months in summer of 2010 and the other from mid-2011 to mid-2012, both a result of lead singer and piano player Kevin Carton's travels. In addition to Carton, the band features Kameron Rummans on bass, Matt Sivertsen on saxophone, and Rob Baner on drums Former members include Jamie Hopkins and Tyler Kaschke, both former drummers. Minus Six takes its name from its lack of six string guitar, a standard instrument in their genre. Instead, they rely on piano, saxophone, and bass guitar to provide melodic backing.
