The Imagine That Band

The Imagine That Band is a rock, country and blues cover band that was formed back in the late 80's by Ziggy, Bob, Adam, Joe and Carter. Since those early days the band has gone through a lot of changes in music and people, while always maintaining a great show for people to see. Ziggy is the only original member still playing under the "Imagine That" name. He consistently keeps the band alive by changing various aspects of the group with the latest version being the best yet. With the variety of musicians and instruments in this band, Imagine That offers different types of music to keep everyone musically entertained. The following is a little back ground on each of the current band members.Ziggy is a well-rounded and laid back old school type bass player with over twenty years in the business. He projects very solid bass lines with his boogie-woogie walks while filling up the rhythm. His style provides the backbone to keep the band rocking into the wee hours of the morning. He is particularly fond of Southern and Classic Rock. You can hear this in the music he plays and the songs he sings, but don’t let that fool you, he can still rock out to 3 Doors Down, Nickelback and Fuel. Ziggy also owns and runs the lights and sound systems for the band. He has run the sound in small clubs, large clubs, private parties, and some Abate functions. He has plenty of experience to make the band sound well rounded. With his abilities, everybody can rock-n-roll, dance or just sit back and enjoy the show.
