It's been sometime since we have updated everyone with regard to what is happening with this little rock band of ours. The biggest news, if you have not learned of it already, is the departure of Joey Taylor from the band after three years of service. We wish Joey well in his endeavors going forward. Meanwhile, we are pleased to introduce everyone to our new front man and vocalist RYAN BERARD. Ryan is an accomplished singer and local actor, whom is shooting a film right now, as a matter of fact. The band is very excited about Ryan joining Independent Idols, and he brings a jolt of exuberance, intelligence, excellent vocal ability and youthful brashness to the lead position in the band. Welcome Ryan!

We are looking forward to introducing Ryan to all of you on December 20th, 2008 when Independent Idols competes in Gorilla Music's Battle of the Bands Final at The Rave! It's an all ages show, so bring everyone you know and vote for your friendly neighborhood rock band as we battle seven other Milwaukee bands. Tickets are $10.00 in advance, and $12.00 at the door. Just send us an email at info@independentidols.com if you'd like to purchase a few and help us blow away our competition!
