MARK
As a matter of a quick introduction, we are Tone Deaf… a classic rock band that focuses primarily on 70's rock… but better known as
“A drinking band with a rock and roll problem!”
We’re not the prettiest band going (however, we’ve seen tons uglier), we’re not the most talented (we’re impressed when we hold the guitar the right way), and we’re not the “hardest working band in…”, but we can probably drink all those bands under the table! That’s right, we’s a party band! It’s rock and roll… this ain’t rocket science. You drink, you dance, you have a great time, you hate yourself in the morning.
Tone Deaf started back in the year 2000 as a way to get out of the house and have a couple of pints with the fellas. Not much has really changed since then. Well, the band has changed a bit… people come and people go… but the main focus of the band remains the same. Have a cocktail and have a good time!
Mark Vocals, Guitar
- A guitar player for coming up on 30 years, Mark may one day get it right, but we highly doubt it. Ah, but as he always says, “I play it the way they meant to record it.”, a motto the entire band has now adopted. And it’s not like he can fall back on his vocal prowess to make a living either. Oh, but the boy has heart, and, strangely enough, a lot of energy for a man of his…width. You know the type, one of those guys that make you think, “Crap, if he can do it, anybody can.” Yup, he’s motivating alright.
Marianne Guitar, Vocals
- Our newest "New Guy" just happens to be a chick... and really isn't that new anymore. When do you stop calling them the new guy anyways? And even though she can put Mark to shame vocally, we like to keep her in her place... well, most of the time. You just can't keep a good woman down! Marianne has also improved the look of the band tremendously and added that much needed designated driver. Now all that we have to do is fatten the girl up! After all, there is a required number of chins needed to join this band.
ADAM
Adam Bass, Vocals
- Ah, Adam… the baby of the band. In actual fact, the only reason he’s in the band is because he brings the average age down. Well, that and he's actually pretty good… when he’s sober… but that is so rarely the case. Handsome devil though! But don't tell him… dealing with the ego is tough enough. Adam's been part of Tone Deaf since it's inception… he just won't go away. Guess we should stop feeding him.
STAN
Stan Drums, Vocals
- The lowly drummer. Why are there so many drummer jokes? Because they’ve earned them! And Stanley is no exception. You certainly wouldn’t wanna stand out in the crowd or anything now would you?! Stan has played in a multitude of bands, from wedding bands to heavy bar bands. What he’s finally found in Tone Deaf is a legitimate way to get out of the house and go drinking with the fellas. At least he has his priorities straight.
