ANONYMOUS BRAVE
This fresh five piece female fronted cover band takes the hit songs you love, a wide range from 70’s to Today, and turns them into unique, high energy, dynamic, emotional driven pieces of live art….
With songs that roll together, ANONYMOUS BRAVE reaves up the audience to roll along:
… with beers raised to a new “Road House Blues”
… with Meredith Brook’s estrogen driven anthem “Bitch”, the ladies start head bobbing and chanting
… with spirits dancing and rising together in U2’s “Elevation”
… with Paula Cole’s “Feelin’ Love”, ANONYMOUS BRAVE casts an Isis love spell among the crowd gearing up the morning loving
… and ANONYMOUS BRAVE’S new spin on “Sweet Dreams” by the Eurythmics makes the ladies go crazy!
… with Evanescence’s “Call Me When You’re Sober”, ANONYMOUS BRAVE’S lead singer truly gives Amy Lee a run for her money!
… and with The Cranberries’ song, Zombie, this band truly does bring inspiring comfort to the wounded soldier at the bar.
To mention what each band member brings individually:
BURTON, the mysterious grimace smile stranger:
A British Rocker style voice with a strong tone of Johnny Cash and his intricate 70’s style quitar playin’ add an original flavor to ANONYMOUS BRAVE.
KARINE, the ambitious lady that loves:
An empowering bassist with a fresh and professional funky style layered in meaty dynamics and complex runs.
ALEX, the goofy thunder heart of gold:
Long ago nicknamed “ANIMAL” because of his hot and heavy rhythms with mad dynamics topped of with his innovative high energy performances, this drummer just makes the crowd go absolutely NUTS! You can’t help but dance! He is the balls that drive this ship!
ESTELLE: the strong voice, the tender heart, the connected soul:
A bluesy Evanesence and a Kelly Clarkson capability, a sexy curvy out spoken Madonna, a Martina McBride strength, a Janis Joplin out of Control Energy, all toppled with a Jewel sensitivity, sticks ANONYMOUS BRAVE’S performance together like an arrow straight through the heart.
At first the name, ANONYMOUS BRAVE, puzzles the audience, but once the meaning of the name explained and the live sounds are heard, the once misunderstood get from the crowd, the nod! ANONYMOUS BRAVE’S deep meaning reaches people across the spectrum of all beliefs:
“There is a slang term for the anonymous bloggers on the internet that post vicious comments, they are called anonymous cowards. ANONYMOUS BRAVE is just the opposite, and basically means a group of people who are respectful of others opinions while still standing by what they believe.”
So are you…
Looking for a time to let loose?
Looking for an authentic experience?
Looking to connect beyond the casual, “Hi’s and Hello’s”?
Then come to our show….
Where a real raw band meet excited fans!
Where all are allowed to JUST BE and have an awesome… time!
