Tommie is the Lead Guitarist and provides Back-Up Vocals for the group. Grounded in a true passion for the music, he brings an abundance of presence and professionalism to the project. Capitalizing on his articulated phrasing with the right hand and diverse arsenal of leads with the left, he reminds an audience what it is to be a complete guitar player. His use of Digitech Vocalist.......makes one think we have brought in a trio of back up singers.
Dave is the latest addition to the ZIPPER lineup. He has a unique bass sound that inspires people to dance. His finesse and superlative technique provides some of the most Solid Bass solo work heard around the area. His almost magical syncopation with Barry's kick drum is a true envy to most rhythm sections. With a healthy dose of slap, poppin, danceable funk or that driving, chest thumbing beat on the Rock n Roll, it's a no-brainer why ZIPPER added him to the mix.
Barry brings a wealth of experience and versatility to the drum throne. His meter is as constant as the Northern Star. His attention to dynamics makes listening to him a real pleasure. With his youthful enthusiasm by his side, he puts the Rock back into the Roll and the Dance back into your Soul. With his snappy snare and tight syncopation with his kick drum to the bass line of Dave, it's no wonder this rhythm section is the envy of those with a critical ear.
Michael Seven is our Lead Vocalist and Rhythm Guitarist. Being no stranger to the stage, he has been the driving force and heart and soul of several successful previous projects. Michael guarantees to engage an audience with strong powerful vocals as well as clever banter. With an undeniable intensity and passion, he reminds an audience that "Nothing is as real as the Way That You Feel". He is a descendant of a Shaman, a Man on a Mission, with Magic in his Mojo.
