Band Members:
PAT BACON'S REBELLION MEMBERS:
Pat Bacon - Guitar/Lead Vox. Bacon is the writer and singer of the band's original music. He is very athletic, good looking and modest. And smart.
Andy Smith - Lead Guitar/Mandolin/Vox. Andy is the jack-of-all-trades, playing anything he wants and usually running the sound board as well. Women are attracted to his keen sense of fashion and searing guitar solos. Has been known to sleep spooned up to his new Savage amp and his Gibson.
Steve Donahoe - Drummer. Donahoe once warmed up for Head East. Donahoe studied the drumming techniques of the hundreds of Iowan stick men to come before him. From hair band music to rap, Donahoe has seen it all and has yet to make a mistake. Ever.
Butch Zierath - Bass. Butch is a pro bass player who has played millions of gigs. His dream of getting his AARP card before cutting his mullet were shattered in 2006 by an overzealous barber. Zierath is brilliant playing any one of his eleven bass guitars. His favorite song to play is Mustang Sally...
Matt Kalin - Producer/Keyboards - Kalin is the youngest member of the band, which means he is under 40. Classically trained on the piano, Kalin discovered that he could make a lot less money and have more fun playing rock and roll.
