About Me

Former Bass/Vocals of the infamous Los Angeles band "The Mutts" has suddenly stumbled upon a few other "fellow drinkers" to surprisingly form this loud, fun, raucous bunch of crazies...with pretty catchy songs! Is this too good to be true?!
Some recent reviews:
Lava Lounge/Replacements tribute show. "Went with 4 of my friends to see our other friends band. They were okay, but the real headliners and easily the best band was the Popravinas. They blew all others away. There own song rocked. It was like watching a bunch of real pros compared to the other bands. Crowd loved them....." Popravinas Fan review, Worldofgigs.com
"Good band after having to wade through an assault of bad metal and meagre punk by opening acts. Total Replacements vibe, but I think the musicanship is better...at least the drums and guitars. Should be playing bigger rooms. A fun group on stage. Refreshing...." Popravinas Fan review, Worldofgigs.com
