On The Rocks
About Us





Tony - Lead Guitar

Tony has been playing guitar since the age of 15.  In high school, he would get together with some friends to jam on the weekends.  Due to his love of music, Tony just decided one day that he would buy a guitar and he taught himself to play.  Tony has developed a great ear for music and is able to learn almost any song just by listening to it.  Tony has been a member of Caught Looking, and now On The Rocks.  Tony's influences include Ronnie Van Zant, Johnny Cash, and Brad Paisley. 


Chris - Bass Guitar

Chris has always had a love for the Bass Guitar, but didn't take up playing until the age of 33.  Growing up, Chris was always blowing his speakers because he loved to crank up the bass.  Once he purchased his first bass and amp, it was a matter of days before he blew that first amp and had to go for more power.   Chris has played bass for Caught Looking, and you can now hear him laying down the groove for On The Rocks.  Some of Chris' influences include Jason Newstead, Flea, and the late Leon Wilkeson.  Chris' motto is "If it is too loud, you are too old!!!"



Dan - Drums / Vocals

Dan began playing drums at the ripe old age of 12.  Dan has been playing drums and singing in bands for about 11 years now.  Dan, with his double bass style, has been the driving force behind a number of bands including Krakatoa, The Jack Frost Band, and now On The Rocks.  He likes to play rock, country, blues, metal, almost any style, and that helps him fit in so well with On The Rocks.  Some of Dan's influences include Neil Pert, Mike Portnoy (Dream Theatre), Lars Ulrich, and his brother Mike Rudes, whom he credits for his band ethics.  Dan would also like to thank Glen Johnson for his help and support over the years and through the bands.  Dan can also be seen singing a song or two, and he has recently picked up the bass guitar, so you may see him on that at a future show as well.


Jamie - Lead Vocals

I started my music career banging on the drums at a young age. I played for about 5 years growing up. My singing career started with karaoke and with the support of friends, I got up the courage to audition for a band.  This is my first chance singing in a band and I am very excited. My musical influences include Linkin Park, Kiss, Smithereens, Pearl Jam, Beastie Boys, and Twisted Sister. I love getting people to dance and have a good time. So go out there and "Dance like you're naked and no one is watching!".
