Under The Bridge

They have their own style of punk: intelligent and intelligible lyrics, punk energy with accomplished guitar solos, rockin' rhythms and hum-able melodies. Their original works showcase their eclectic musical tastes. Blues, classic punk, classic rock, rock-a-billy, and beach music influences can be heard throughout their sets. Remakes of songs, including: Baby, Now That I've Found You; Mary Jane's Last Dance; Last Kiss; House of the Rising Sun, and Wipeout, etc., are infused with their youthful innovations.

Together, these four young musicians have pooled their influences and talents to create a unique and fresh sound that is welcomed among today’s screaming styles.

Band Members:
Marshall Alexander: lead singer/rhythm guitar/keyboard/songwriter. - Marshall is as likely to be caught playing acoustic love songs to his girlfriend as he is to be rocking his Les Paul or tinkling the keys. His eclectic taste is heavily influenced by legends such as Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Green Day, Rancid, Bob Marley, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Dave Grohl, Tom Petty, Chuck Berry, and Brian Setzer, to name only a few.

Evan Martin: lead guitar/backup vocals. - Evan is the "wild man" of the band. Waist-length hair flying as he throws himself around the stage, he pounds rock riffs that'll curl your toes. His major influences have been Zakk Wylde, Angus Young, Henry Garza, Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Lars Frederiksen, Chuck Berry, Brian Setzer, and B.B. King.

Mikey Morris: bass. - Mikey is the band's "baby", but youngest doesn't mean smallest or quietest by any means. His solid but crazy bass lines are a reflection of his serious respect for classic bands like his all time favorite, The Grateful Dead. Jerry Only, Mike Dirnt, and Eric Wilson are his greatest influences.

Ellen Taylor: drums/songwriter - Ellen is destined to be not only one of the greatest "chick" drummers of all time, but one of the all time greatest drummers, period. With what appears to be no major effort, she drives Under The Bridge with her solid rhythms and dead-on beat. Her obsession with punk bands like The Clash, Rancid, Green Day, The Ramones, The Romantics, and even The Kinks, led the band to their great punk/classic rock sound. She has been significantly influenced by Tre Cool, Travis Barker, and Chad Smith.
