| Greetings and thanks for the interest in "Blistered" - Tampa's hottest Cover band. |
| The band's mission is to provide the very best in live music and entertainment, supported by first-rate stage production and pro-equipment. The band performs "Top 40" covers from the past three decades (and even a few "classics" from the 70's) with a focus on today's modern rock, pop, amd dance music. We also perform Alternative, Reggae, R&B, Techno, Club, Heavy Rock, etc. (please see our Master Song List) ). The common denominator is performing music that is "recognizable", "danceable", and "fun"! |
| Here is a bit of history and a few short words about the band membership. Vivi and Owen had been collaborating for some time in several music projects in and around Tampa (e.g., "LifePoint", "Crazy 8's" and "Mixed Rhythm"). Owen also sat in with two other bands and a Latin Jazz project. Neal had been mixing it up with "Stroke of X", Taylor had been playing with "Radio Reset," "This Day On," and several studio projects, and Mike was working a side project with "Identity Crisis". Robi was drumming it up with a rock band down in Valrico and Brandon doing club gigs. Through the magic of networking, we all heard about each other and began communicating the thought of starting a new high-end cover band. We got together one evening at Neal's house, jammed for a bit, and quickly realized it was exactly what we had all been looking for. The chemistry was perfect and the band was born! |
| As you can see from the biography pages, we have a diverse background and hail from across the globe. Mike is a Business Operations Manager in the Defense Industry and married with three children, Vivi is working toward a PhD in classical music, Taylor is in the Mortgage Banking Industry, Neal is a Program Manager, Owen is an executive management consultant and married with a daughter in college, and Robi owns an air-conditioning and heating company and is married with two children. But don't let that fool you - there is over a hundred years of pro- and semi-pro-musical experience in the group and we know how to Rock! |
| So come out and enjoy the show, get up and dance a bit, and be prepared for a rockin' fun-filled evening! |
| See you soon! |
| Neal, Vivi, Mike, Owen, Taylor, & Robi |
