More about Rock & Repeat
Two years ago, the lead guitarist, Dean, decided to pull a new band together. The goal was to have a medley of everyone’s favorite flavors with a side of fun. Throw in the animated singer that he met in his back yard and you have Rock & Repeat! Wait… She wasn’t stalking Dean while singing… They have adjoining backyards – really!
Let’s just introduce the Band…
Dean Sharpe plays lead guitar and backup vocals. He has loved music ever since he can remember. When he was a kid during the 8-track era, he heard his sister’s Kiss Alive album and fell in love. He picked up the guitar at 14 to look cool… and when that didn’t work, he learned how to play. Over the past 30 years he has played in bands like Senseless, Haze, Peacemaker and Damn Skippy.
Mike Graham came out of the womb drumming (his mom was glad to get him out) and soon became the latest sensation at family gatherings. He started his professional career in 1984 playing in a jazz band through high school and college. He has been part of numerous cover and original acts over the years.
Jimmy Willis plays bass guitar and vocals (and band mascot). He’s been rocking the local music scene for over 30 years now. He has performed in local cover bands such as HAZE and Damn Skippy (with Dean), as well as an original band called Seeking Clarity (with Mike) that produced an album that is still available on iTunes. He’s a master with funny movie quotes and always ready for good music and good times.
Tina Turner is not Tina Turner… BUT she is lead vocals and dances. She claims to have Tina Turner legs, enjoys rolling on the river, and dressed up once as her for Halloween. She has been singing since she got out of diapers and will be singing when she gets back into them. But she has been singing in public now for over 6 years and loves it. New to the band scene, her biggest passion now is to ROCK & REPEAT on stage while everyone has a BLAST.
Come enjoy something fresh and fun (and a little unpredictable)! The band has been working hard on their show so you can finally get some much-needed R&R! That’s Rock & Repeat – your ultimate music retreat!
