Crowding Bay Area dance floors with there distinct brand of entertainment, headliner
Superbad is ready to stir any size
event, party, or wedding. Six-foot-six Band leader Henry Lange embraces the audience
with engaging character. ‘Superbad,
has a large presence and energy on stage, my job is to bring that energy to everyone
in the room,’ expresses the lead vocalist. SuperBad
performs a variety of musical styles ranging from 70’s, 80's & 90's
working hard at maintaining a top-tier position in the Bay Area club circuit.
Says Lange: ‘The band continuously works at keeping with current musical
trends putting a current spin on a strong collection of standards in our repertoire.’
Although a four-piece lineup, SuperBad produces
a rich full sound: drummer/vocalist Paul Batras and Bassist Danny Pisano drive
the rhythm section, allowing accomplished guitarist Russ Pettit freedom to texture
the top end. While Paul and Danny provide a sturdy base, Russ can play anything
from a Motown rhythm comp to a searing jazz flourish. ‘I base each show
on the tempo and feel of the audience, so it is essential that I have a group
of pros that can respond. We like spontaneity, so every performance is exciting
and different,’ notes Lange. In addition to a rock solid lineup, SuperBad
draws from today’s technology to broaden the bands sound and deepen the
assortment of tunes. ‘If we need a horn section, or an orchestral passage,
Russ can trigger a keyboard arrangement that he has played and digitally sequenced
with exacting detail, Bringing the energy and excitement of their live show to
private events throughout the Bay Area.
SuperBad has recently performed
at events for Microsoft, Netscape and the Pacific Athletic Club. The Band plays
regularly at (The Fox Theatre) in Redwood City, (Britannia Arms) in Almaden,
(Maggie McGarry's) in San Francisco & (Oneills) in San Mateo.
