About / Biography

I am a member of a R&B/Motown/Stax/Volt band in Austin, the Defibrillators.

The band has been together 3 years and have played a variety of venues such as Skylark Lounge, Little Longhorn Saloon, Drifters Social Club, Angel’s Icehouse, Central Market North, private events, and others. Our fee is very affordable as well.


We have filled in our setlist enough to play over 3 hrs and get folks dancing, all to great reviews. We play a great selection of old favorites and new classics. We are a high energy, very danceable band. Having played a number of venues in Central Texas, I know your members will have a great time.
