Jackie

Genre: Rock | Alternative | Pop Cleveland, Ohio siblings Jackie, Matt and Mike LaPonza have been performing together since 1996. JACKIE is for fans of Evanescence, No Doubt, Pink, Paramore, Nickleback, Fly Leaf, and Green Day. While Jackie belts power ballads, Matt and Mike deliver the heavy-hitting drum sound. With accomplished guitarists’ Patrick Ols and Mike Donovan the group has found their sound: an engaging blend of alternative-rock, classic rock and dynamic melodies. Donovan brings the strong, low-end bass that builds complexity in the group’s sound while Ols’ big chords, urgent yet intricate guitar and incredible showmanship creates the group’s bigger-than-life music experience.

Johnny Philko

Genre: Rock | Blues | Psychedelic Down home rock and roll, and a sound and lyric that will remind you of a different time.
