With Tequila Mockingbird, every show is a celebration of the greatest eras in rock music.
Tequila Mockingbird: Chicago’s Pre-eminent Arena Rock Band
Hold on to your fanny packs and tease your hair! Tequila Mockingbird is here to transport you back to the golden age of arena rock, straight from the Windy City. We’re talking big guitars, bigger riffs, and the biggest hits from the 70s, 80s, and 90s and beyond. Ready to rock? Let’s dive into the madness!
Robin D Banks – Lead Vocals and Guitar
Robin Banks is the man, the myth, the legend, and the guy your mom warned you about. His voice is smoother than a mullet at a monster truck rally and his guitar solos are hotter than Chicago deep-dish. When he’s not melting faces and stealing hearts, Robin enjoys collecting vintage guitars and teaching them how to be cool like him.
Eddie Van Whalen – Guitar
Eddie “Van Whalen” Michener is our guitar wizard, conjuring up riffs that could wake the dead and solos that could melt your face off. When he’s not busy shredding, Ed enjoys long walks on the beach and making grown men weep with his wickedly awesome guitar skills. His fingers move so fast, they should come with a warning label.
Bob Miller – Bass
Bob Miller, the bass man with the golden groove. If his bass lines were any smoother, they’d be a baby’s bottom. Bob’s playing is the secret sauce in our rock ‘n’ roll burger, giving every song that extra bit of sizzle. When he’s not laying down the groove, Bob enjoys collecting vintage bass guitars and teaching them how to be cool like him. Bob’s Stage presence can only be described as electric, and we are pretty sure he’s the reason for most of Chicago’s power outages
Andy Sapko – Drums
Andy Sapko is the percussive powerhouse behind the kit, bringing the thunder and making sure we stay on beat (most of the time). His drumming is so tight, we had to check if he was a human metronome. Andy’s the guy who’ll keep the party going all night long, and he’s the only one who can count to four without getting distracted.
With Tequila Mockingbird, every show is a high-energy, laughter-filled extravaganza. We’re here to make sure you have a rockin’ good time, with a setlist that’s guaranteed to get you singing along and air-guitaring like a pro. So dust off those denim jackets, crank up the volume, and get ready to rock out with the best band in Chicago. Let’s make some noise!
