Influences
If you thought that South Florida couldn't get any hotter, then you must be one of the few in the Palm Beach County area that have not seen the energetic, heart-pounding, power trio that call themselves The Flyers! Lighting up local nightclubs with their charismatic take on songs that you know and love, The Flyers have the ability to captivate an audience. Some people go out to listen to good music, some people go out just to dance, some people love the blues and others just love to rock! At The Flyers concert, you definitely get all this and more!! The Flyers feature Patrick Farinas on guitar and lead vocals; his father Tony Farinas, on bass and backup vocals and Scott Craig on the drums. Patrick, only 25, is a well-established rock/blues/funk/original guitar player that started playing professionally in clubs at the age of 13. Considered a child prodigy, he was as dextrous on the guitar as he was on drums, bass, keyboard and harmonica then, and has furthered all of those talents still today. But when you see him play the guitar, you can really see his soul shine through. Covering such heros as Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan, George Harrison and Jimi Hendrix, Patrick adds his own fire and style into anything that he plays. He has had the honor of opening for such greats as Pinetop Perkins and Bob Dylan; and more recent artists, Sugar Ray and The Wallflowers. His stage show should come with a disclaimer for people with heart conditions!!

The old pro, Tony Farinas, is a seasoned musician who has played with such artists as Cyndi Lauper, members of The Paul Butterfield Blues Band and The Muddy Waters Blues band, Sam Andrew of Janis Joplin's Big Brother and The Holding Company and Jimmy Vivino of The Conan O'Brien Show. He has an innate talent along with formal training from The Julliard School of Music. He is also credited by Ampeg as an innovator of the fretless bass. He was a creative force in a very successful New York City band, Wind At Night; who was regularly seen at CBGB's and The Mud Club sharing the stage with The Talking Heads and The Ramones. With such an amazing background, Tony is a key member of The Flyers. His solid pocket-style bass playing is unbeatable! Joe Beard, the newest addition to the band, is a self-described regular guy, with crappy drums, that can keep a decent beat. He can also play guitar, bass and sing some melodic harmonies. So, don't be surprised if you see instruments being exchanged in the middle of a song!
It is no doubt that when a talent like Joe is teamed up with Tony, it makes an outstanding rhythm section behind the impressive vocal and guitar work of Patrick! All-in-all The Flyers are a must-see act whose shows are filled with loyal fans, popular songs, a good vibe and always a great time!!
