The Distractions

The Distractions

Contemporary, Pop, R&B/Soul, Rock


 
The Distractions... West Coast Florida's most eclectic band plays it all: rock, pop, blues, jazz, dance and, yes, even country (new country, of course). A variety of music and distractions from the '70s to the millennium.
When people ask us: "What do you play?" we always answer that it's easier to tell you what we don't do; "We don't Rap, Twang, or Bang!" The Distractions are known for their wide mix of musical capabilities. Lead singer/keyboardist Michelle DeLorme's four octave vocal range and versatility allows the band to cover almost anything. Lead guitarist Johnny V's addition of the mandolin brought in a whole new musical dimension.
It is not unusual for the band to play Zeppelin followed by Alicia Keys, Evanesence and U2, and then end the set with an up tempo country tune by Gretchen Wilson.
The band's goal is to add new songs on a weekly basis to keep it interesting for everyone. They want to keep you guessing... "What will they play next??"
The idea is to walk into a gig and play for the gig! After all, it's about the crowd, the gig, the club and people who love the band.
