The Crocodiles • Party Band
Bio

“The Crocodiles” story unfolds like a twenty-year old legacy in the making. While performing in many different venues from Hollywood to New York, these six extraordinarily talented and accredited musicians were drawn together at the right time in the right place.

During the 1980’s and the 1990’s in San Francisco’s Bay Area, Billy Moore (lead vocals, acoustic guitar, percussion) and Jeff Rymer (lead guitar, lead vocals and harmonica) along with Kevin Surratt (lead guitar) fronted a number of high-energy vocally driven Rock n’ Roll bands. Their talents garnered them a loyal following wherever they were found performing.

After years of searching for the perfect rhythm section to compliment their act, they were introduced to Joe Tyler (drums, lead vocals, percussion, guitar) and Screamin’ Joe LoFreso (keyboards, lead vocals). The musical background of these two artists reads like a who’s, who biography in the world of music. With stadium concert performances and recordings with major record labels under their belts, they brought their music industry experience to help bring a new dimension to the band. Bill Peay (bass guitar, lead vocals), a long time friend and past companion of Screamin’ Joe, was brought in to complement their rock solid sound by providing a rich bottom end with a consistent groove.

With their blend of musical talents and diverse backgrounds this synergistic event proceeded to jump-start their wildly fantastic sound.

Out of a late night rehearsal in an urban warehouse, far from their beckoning fans, “The Crocodiles” were born. Tight vocal harmonies, along with unique stage and instrumental showmanship, make “The Crocodiles” second-to-none. With their blend of popular hits from Rock to Funk, to Old-School to Motown, to Country to Contemporary Pop, this dynamic act will no doubt have you putting on your dancing shoes and warming up your singing voices to join in and have a great time. They provide an “experience” an audience would not soon forget. “The Crocodiles” are a great act and a professional choice for any type of engagement, from a corporate event to a private party… “The Crocodiles” are just the ticket!!!
