Meet the Band

Dave Shamrock

Lead singer/guitarist "Doo-Wop" Dave Shamrock started playing 50s music after one time he came in eleventh place in a stand-up comedy talent show. Dave's jokes have improved significantly since then, and his love of the oldies comes through with every strum of his big Gretsch guitar. Favorite 50s movie (that also could have been a Dr. Seuss book): Go, Cat, Go!

Jim Matheson

Lead guitarist Jim "Jimmy Mac" Matheson is one of the craziest cats singin' and strummin' a Stratocaster this side of Saskatchewan. Jim receives occasional emails from Elvis (or so the guy claims) and swears he saw the King one time at the car wash back behind the mall. (Said he was drivin' a beat-up Ford Pinto hatchback.) Favorite guitar strings: Ernie Ball Extra Super-Duper Slinkies.

Rick Barr

Drummer "Slick" Rick Barr comes from a very musical family and has actually been playing percussion since age 6-months. He once carved his own drum sticks out of a balsa-wood tree in the backyard (they didn't last long, though). Jokin' aside, Rick has an impressive musical resume that includes touring as a member of the New Colony Six, and Ouray. Favorite drum brand: Slingerland, like Ringo used.

Rocco Phipps

Say hi to Rocco, the newest addition to The Rockin' Fenderskirts. One of Rocco's first gigs with the band was a Halloween costume party. None of us could come up with ideas for costumes. Rocco said not to worry, his bass would come in costume. We don't know what it's supposed to be, but we dig it!
