Brad McConnell bass player, originally
from Muncie Indiana, started playing bass
when some friends had a little garage
band and they needed a bass player. I said
what's the base? They said it's four strings
and you play the bottom note. I said I think
I can do that! One of my baseball coaches
had a bass that he let me use and I started
playing. Within a few months I was playing
high schools and events around Central
Indiana before moving to the Tampa Bay
area.I played in the club scene in and
around the southeast, have many studio
credits, and got involved in the tribute
scene. Since then I have been fortunate
enough to travel all over the United States
playing music with great musicians. I'm
looking forward to seeing you all out there
and putting on a great show. Peace!!
Michael was born in Speedway Indiana into a musical family. His Mother taught keyboard for a music store in Indianapolis and gave private lessons at home. Thats where he caught the music bug.
At six years of age his Mom started teaching him the basics of music on keyboard. Finding he needed something more portable than a piano he switched to the guitar at the age of 8.
Since then he has traveled from California to Florida opening for and sharing the stage with such acts as
Foghat, Travis Tritt, Vanilla Ice, Montgomery Gentry, The Outlaws, The Davisson Bothers and Craig Morgan and many others.
He has spent the last 20 years with playing the festivals around Florida and recently touring with The Chas Collins Band.
The first 2 Boston albums were some of the very first in his music collection and was some of the earliest music he learned to play on guitar so when presented with the idea of joining a tribute to his early childhood hero’s , there was only the one question, when do we start rehearsals ?
S.F bay born and raised vocalist Dennis "Dino" Morales has been singing his ass off across the nation since he was 15.
Although he started playing guitar, his older brother would ask him to learn songs from Foreigner, Bad Co, Boston and others so "he" could sing them.
Eventually teaching me how to sing the high harmony, I realized that "I" could be a singer lol. But that opportunity didn't come around until I was 23 with Bay Area band, 21 Royal. Needless to say, I've been fronting bands ever since.
The tribute band circuit wasn't really a thing back in 2000. Over the last 22 years tribute bands have kept musicians like me out there performing In front of hundreds to thousands of people Nationally and internationally. I found myself in many tributes bands since then from Aerosmith, Journey, Bon Jovi, Tesla, Dio, John Cougar and now years later I find myself fronting an amazing band of pro musicians in our Boston tribute, Amanda.
We are excited and looking forward to seeing you all at the show!!
