THE USUAL SUSPECTS

THE USUAL SUSPECTS are made up of five highly experienced players. Extensive touring backgrounds and differing musical styles - from Punk to Jazz.With five players that are adept at vocals, the bands harmonies are finely layered.The varied styles of music is also a different approach for a cover band. The Usual Suspects tries to stay away from the typical top 40 cover band song lists. The material is all well known but differs from what has typically been played by cover bands.The band covers a lot of material from the 1980's, as well as some more current top 40 material.Made up of Lead Vocals, Guitar, Drums, Bass and Keyboards, this line up allows the band much flexibility in selecting material. A mere small sampling of the music selection includes Van Halen, Billy Idol, Huey Lewis The News, Phil Collins, Inxs, David Bowie, The Fixx, The Romantics, and Thomas Dolby.Some have said that the band sounds like the original acts that they cover but more similar to what one would expect from the covered bands "Live". Subtle changes/paraphrasing gives the band this unique quality.
