Bio
The Drop Daddies play music that Boomers, Gen Xers, Millenials and even Gen Z will all recognize. Their lively sets focus on classic rock standards and alt rock hits, but also include current radio favorites, new wave, reggae, blues, punk and pop. A typical three hour set can literally span six decades of music, giving you a choice selection from the most recognizable and greatest tunes you've heard your whole life.
Established in 2012, the Drop Daddies have played venues throughout the tri-valley - from outdoor stages, to crushing late night sets in sweaty dance halls, to all-ages multi-generational events. This versatile six-piece ensemble plays two guitars, keys, bass, drums, percussion, and harmonica, and features powerful vocals and harmonies.
Band member Xeno says, "We enjoy working up faithful renditions of songs we've all heard a thousand times. Nailing the guitar tone and vocal harmonies are quests we take seriously. We're not reinventing these classic songs, but we do add our own touches and believe in every song we perform. We do a few volunteer shows per year for charitable organizations including the Alzheimer's Association walk events and local public school events. If needed, we can adjust volume or edit lyrics, but our goal is to give the audience that full rock band experience. There was not a lot of rock in our town so we started a band. Living so close has allowed us to grow as a band while holding down jobs and raising our kids."
