Random Lengths New, San PedroAfter my show @ kbeach.org, I went to Hermosa Saloon and caught CMP Covers, as the name notes it is a cover band, but what a cover band, excellent. They had the crowd going, solid chops. These people will go far in clubs and hotels that want a band that can produce various styles to please their customers. If this band put forth to an original set, I know this would be killer material, they have good ears and they freakin' ROCK!

Three Bands-Two Nights-One Bar
by B. Noel Barr, the Music Writer DudeJune 27, 2008It has been an exciting last couple of weeks at the San Pedro Brewing Company for lovers of live club shows. The Brewing Company welcomed out of town (Gardena) artists: CMP Covers to San Pedro on June 6. In their first show in San Pedro, the South Bay band performed a couple of sets with pronounced zeal. The energetic flow of the cover songs they performed from the 80's, 90's, and the roaring 2000's were executed with deft skill, and precision. Each song was delivered with a feeling and a place in time, done with a fresh, in the moment feel.
