SAVANNAH
With her musical pedigree, it's not surprising that Savannah is a musician...
her Dad, the late Frank Collimore ('Custer's Last Stand'/'The D-Men'/'Rock On') was a well-known lead guitarist and singer around Australia's club circuit for many years.
Honing her considerable abilities for the past 30+ years, from cabaret in the early 90s through to the country rock field ('On The Double'/'Just Us'), to pop covers, various rock groups and classic covers duos ('Jukebox Rox'/'Timeless') plus some voiceovers... Savannah has worked in just about every genre.
She is also a talented songwriter and has won numerous awards in that arena as well as many for her powerful, smooth vocals.
Savannah loves being where she is most at home... onstage, front and centre as lead singer and rhythm guitarist alongside a group of talented entertainers.
Don't miss her fabulous renditions of some of the rock'n'roll greats at a club near you soon!
DOM
Music definitely runs in the Irish blood of Dom, being the son of the late Aidan O'Leary (drummer for Georgie & The Unicorns).
After an early education in classical piano, Dom pursued his interest in the drums, like his Da.
Keeping the beat for various outfits, he also turned his musical talents to bass and then finally to guitar in popular bands, before joining popular rock and roll bands, 'Andy & The Cruisers' and then 'The Midnight Drifters'.
Dom's versatile musicianship and his amazing vocal range and ability make him our MVP.
A lifelong Beatles fan, Dom's interpretation of some of their classic dance tunes ensures the crowd is singing along and up on the dancefloor.
GREG
Began his professional musical career in 1983 playing in country bands, progressing to playing bass with the rock and blues group, 'Piston Broke'.
A foray into showbands and theatre shows in the 90s saw this Mr Bassman gaining further experience, before joining middle of the road outfit, 'Heelabend'.
In the early 2000s, Greg joined country music's answer to "The Village People", 'Smokin' Guns' and also joined 'Andy and The Cruisers' in 2007.
Greg's diversity with showbands continued with 'Hotshots' and 'Dance Mania' before adding his distinctively smooth low tones to popular Sydney dance group, 'The Midnight Drifters'.
After their demise, he founded 'Retro Rock 50s and 60s', and is establishing this group as one of the premier dance bands in Sydney.
JOE "The Falcon"
Sitting down at his first drum kit at the tender age of 10, Joe was a natural and he was hitting the skins in the Clubs by age 14.
A member of such rock'n'roll groups as 'The Phoenix', 'The Falcons', 'On The Prowl', 'Andy & The Cruisers', 'Rocatac', 'Blue Denim', 'Rockin' Xpress' and 'The Midnight Drifters', his experience is vast. In addition, Joe has played with such country icons as Beccy Cole, Lee Kernaghan and Gina Jeffreys.
From running his own karaoke show, to being in great demand as a fill-in for some of the most popular bands in town, Joe is a multi-skilled and wanted man.
His sound groove and his solid vocals also lend themselves to filling out and layering the harmonies with ease... and he even showcases his vocal chops on the occasional lead.
With his cheeky style and inimitable character, Joe 'The Falcon' will get your feet tapping and make you want to get up and dance.
