PURPLE HERBIE

About Me

Purple Herbie is the best way to describe the unfettered energy and rock innovation produced by all four highly regarded members with a style and ability that will inspire audiences by an entirely new musical genre.

In a period where music is suffering from a lack of inspiration and creation, the moment has come to return to the source of the music itself, its sound and its quality, to replace the wave all too commercialized and transient. Purple Herbie arrives at the right time with compositions that are true, fresh, strong and sensitive, by giving of their exceptional talent and know-how to a public which will be more than enchanted to discover them.

Carl, Raz, Ovi and Jake are the four members of Purple Herbie, an aggressive, alternative and slightly progressive rock group with a ¼ cup of blues. Each one of them have remarkable musical qualities while bringing their own personal touch and a little of their soul in every song they play.

Raz the veteran of the group brings wisdom and an element of surprise which can bring delight to everyone. Raz recorded and performed with many other groups where he has put his personal touch and influence throughout his long career.

Carl the drummer better known as “The Animal” is a talented musician who, after a long musical experience, has perfected drum techniques coupled with a creative imagination while being an attentive listener to the other members. Throughout his long career, he has recorded and performed with many groups and artists, and has taught in reputable music schools teaching jazz and latin to finally return to his first love, the rock and the blues.

Ovi, one of the younger members, is imaginative and creative bringing a touch of craziness to each song he plays or sings also adding originality, power and charisma. He has a voice which conveys at the same time gentleness, strength and vibrancy; his music elates us, enchants and takes us to a world where music is king.

And finally, “Dirty Boy” Jake, at 19 only, a young and brilliant discovery, an incredible blues guitarist with solos that will make you quiver and a spirit that ignites you. A typical daydreamer as a young adult, he has developed a certain musical maturity within him in spite of his youth which shines through and will put him in the ranks of other guitar heroes in the future.

They’ve barely began to scratch the surface of they’re unstoppable artistic potential. The four will endow you with their extraordinary talent, modesty and will to succeed, thus paving a way with music that will be marked in your hearts forever, a thunderbolt of music for the soul.
