THE A-LIST is a new band formed in June 2006. This group features five accomplished musicians with over a century of combined playing experience to give you the ultimate musical experience. THE A-LIST has put together a library of material ranging from the classic standards of the 50's and 60's, to the great dance music that we all love to listen to and dance to from the magical 70's. This, combined with 80's and 90's classics, is a true entertainment experience.
THE A-LIST features lead vocalist TOM GARIANO. Tom has spent the last three years as the front man for Buffalo's top attraction, Flipside, performing over one hundred shows a year and playing a wide variety of venues all across WNY.
On drums is ROB FERENC, co-founder and member for the last ten years of national recording artists Seven Day Faith. SDF had three top ten singles on Kiss 98.5 and a Number 1 record on the Billboard music charts in May 2004. Rob has toured with the likes of Pat Benatar, Simple Plan, Avril Lavigne, Gavin DeGraw, 98 Degrees (featuring Nick Lachey), and many more. Having played sold out concerts at HSBC Arena and Darien Lake, Rob is a true pro.
On guitar and vocals for THE A-LIST is CRAIG MCDONELL, a true seasoned Buffalo music veteran. Craig has been involved with many top projects, including Rick James' side project The Mary Jane Girls, Catch 22 with former Talas front man Phil Naro, and most recently Out Cold. Craig has an amazing voice covering high lead and harmony vocals. He is an all around great person to be around and a very passionate musician.
On keyboards and vocals is one of WNY most versified players TRACY RUSSELL. Tracy has performed along side of some of best musicians in Buffalo. Tracy was a member of national recording artists 805, and also an original member of the progressive rock band Tribal Reign. In the mid 80's he was a member of an allstar group called Rockamania which featured Paul Varga of Talas and Bob Andalora of White Lies.
Roundng out THE A-LIST lineup on bass guitar, is CHRIS CAPILUPI - another veteran and no stranger to the Buffalo music scene. Chris has played everything from jazz, blues, classic rock to country - with the flair of excellence. He is the back bone that lays the foundation for THE A-LIST.
