ABOUT THE BAND
Independent George is Texas’ premiere rock and roll cover band. The band focuses on high energy, crowd-engaging dance and party music from the ‘80s to present, with a few classic rock hits from the ‘70s mixed in along the way. We will keep your party rocking from start to finish!
The band was founded in 2005 and has played all over the country, including the NFL's Touchdown Club tailgate party at Super Bowl XLV.
IG now offers several "alter egos" including RELATIONSHIP GEORGE (our unplugged version), and LOVE IN AN ELEVATOR - our tribute to Aerosmith!
BAND MEMBERS
HOLLYWOOD Lead Vocals, guitar. HOLLYWOOD is the former lead singer of the nationally touring rock band, Slur. During the day he owns and operates Texas' premier interior design firm, Cheap Thrills Decor. When he's not onstage with IG, you can often find HOLLYWOOD performing his acoustic set at local venues.
ROCK Bass, vocals. Rock switched from keys to bass after his Aimless Wonders days when he started Fourplay, and has been rockin' the low tones since then. Rock has been a lawyer for nearly 20 years, and for his day job, he runs the Roberts Law Firm.
SAMMIE Drums, vocals. Sammy has been rocking the kit for us since 2008. He spent his misguided youth as a pro drummer in LA, and now boasts the title of Proctor and Gamble's only bald hair care products salesman.
BUCK Guitar. BUCK is a founding member of the band, and is our guitarist. When he is not onstage, you can find BUCK at a Dallas Texans soccer match, or possibly even practicing law.
BABY SHORTY Keys, vocals. Baby Shorty is our man on keys when he is not off broadcasting games for the San Diego Chargers. He also calls the games for the NY METS!
