Mike Raymond - Vocals/Guitar/Percussions
Besides being a karaoke singer, Mike didn't perform his first live music gig until he was 26 after his roomate's band lost their lead vocalist unexpectedly and were desperate for a replacement. After pulling off the one-nighter quite sucessfully, Mike and his roomate began working on writing original songs and covers for a few years. Mike has been a member of several other projects since his accidental introduction to the world of live perfomances finally finding a home with Rock Radio. Mike is Rock Radio's primary vocalist and entertainer who plays an Ibanez acoustic-electric guitar, hums the harmonica, shakes the tamborine and eagerly awaits the "More Cowbell!" cries from the audience.
Ray DelBrocco - Guitar/Keyboards/Vocals
Born and raised in Northeast Ohio, Ray has been playing guitar and keyboards since the age of ten. Ray has been fortunate to play in several successful bands including "Trixx", "Jynx" and now "Rock Radio". Until "Rock Radio", Ray was most proud of "Trixx" which may have been the first tribute band in the area. The last set of every gig was dedicated, non-stop music, to one of several different artists "Trixx" would replicate. At the time, "Trixx" was honored as Scene Magazines favorite band.
Jeff Bogusz - Lead Guitar/Vocals
Jeff may be one of the most talented guitarist in the area...certainly my favorite. He has toured the Country several times with National bands like Pony Express and others. With a great stage presence, strong complimentary harmonies and a fiery guitar style that just ignites Rock Radio and the Crowd.
