Cerca Trova is an original band from Chantilly Virginia. Cerca Trova has been together since October 2005. They have a very refreshing sound and incredible stage presence. When they first started to play together, they came to it for the music and nothing more. Ever since day one it's been a group effort to achieve a common goal, the goal to share their music with as many people as possible. Every time they step onto a stage they are reminded of that and strive to put on the best performance they can.
Cerca Trova consists of four members, Jordan Waddell (Lead Vocals), Angelo Soares (Guitar), Dave Wernli (Bass), and Josh Cockrell (Drums). Jordan Waddell has had a passion for singing for a very long time and lets everyone know ita s soon as he steps on stage. Some of his influences are: Brandon Boyd of Incubus, David Grohl of The Foo Fighters, Rivers Cuomo of Weezer, Anthony Kiedis, and Paul McCartney. Angelo Soares has been in many different bands and has a lot of experience. He also has a very unique style when it comes to playing and writing music. Some of his influences are: Yngwie Malmsteen, Steve Val, Led Zeppelin, Fall of Troy, and B.B. King. Then there's Dave Wernli. Dave has a very unique style and has a broad range of influences some of which would be flea from Red Hot Chilli Peppers, The Used, and Fall of Troy. Finally, there is Josh Cockrell. Josh has been drumming for most of his life and was the captain of the Chantilly Drumline his senior year of high school. Some of his influences are John Bonham, Buddy Rich, and Bill Bachman. This four piece is very cultured band and lets it be known through their music.
The eclectic repertoire of Cerca Trova has grown even greater lengths with personal friendships as time has passed. They really strive to take their art to the next level. All four members have a great passion that cannot be defined in words, and with this great passion comes even more determination to succeed. Cerca Trova definitely has something to say and wants it to be known. They are a great act to be seen and should not be missed.
