About Me


MARKO - Lead Guitar - Backing Vocals and lead Vocals
Yup I'm still Alive! The Good Thing is I still Rock all the time Playing in BackAlley and an all Original Group called Vicious Violet with Matt Batchalor of my Morticia days, I also sit in with Angry Waters doing Percussion and Guitar when I can, I have slowed down a bit in the studio since I now have a new house with my girlfriend Jeniffer and play daddy to her lil girl Awdrey but still do record. So come on down and see some true Rockn.
MIKE - Bass & backing vocals
Long time friend of Marko played in first band together from 1979 to 1983. found each other again in 1998 and started what became BackAlley which has seen many changes over the years. has a lovley wife Kim and four cool children. Mike loves to party and moves on stage like no other.
WILLIAM - Lead Vocals
As the singer/songwriter/bassist for his longtime original group AUTONOMY, he met Marko when the band recorded their first cd at Marko's studio. This started a friendship that just keeps getting stronger, and as the latest addition to Back Alley's lineup, you can expect William to bring lots of new material into the mix with the band.
NEWMAN - Guitar
Newman met Marko back in about 1999 when his band Apathy (now called IN THE MORNING) came to record at Marko's studio. Newman adds much color to Marko's crazyness - in other words this Jazz influenced gruitar player Rocks. FAVORITE Guitarist - Stevie Ray Vaughan FAVORITE COLOR - GREEN FAVORITE BANDS - TOOL and STONE TEMPLE PILOTS FAVORITE MOVIE - The Big Labowski FAVORITE THINGS TO DO - ROCK HARD - ALL NIGHT LONG!
DAVE - DRUMMER
been bumping heads with Marko and friends since High School but never really hung around each other, when Long Time Drummer Bill Zahn stepped down Bill recammended Dave and thats where Dave stepped up and has been riding down the BackAlley since Febuary of 2006. Has been in long term relationship since the early 80s with wife Rachel and together they have three children.
MORE TO COME!
