Come Back Alice / Bio

Come Back Alice is an aggressive eclectic jamrock band that infuses funk styling with rock flavor. "It's jamrock for the soul" with an intriguing blend of melodic and technical bass, funky drums, hard hitting guitar and smoking fiddle, topped of with Tony's soul inspiring vocals. Tony Tyler, a native of Dublin, GA, began making music at the tender age of 3. With a father in the music business, it was simply in his genes, inspiring him to sing and play drums like his dad. By age 12, he was given his first guitar, and after hearing Duane Allman play slide, his focus soon shifted to fronting and leading his own band. Tony is an accomplished drummer, guitarist, and harmonica player with a vocal range and style that tops off his many exceptional talents. As front man for Come Back Alice, Tony brings this talent to the stage for all to enjoy. Dani Jaye began her life on horseback. Her enormous passion for animals and competitive riding kept her busy through high school, but it was music that brought her true happiness and a strong sense of destiny. The gift of a violin from her aunt at age 13 planted the seed for her enveloping love of music, making her into the music power house she is today. Dani's sweet yet devilish stage presence matched by her intense fiddle styling, captivates all who witness her performance. Johnnie Barker, a bass player and serious gamer, lives a life full of happiness and strives to spread joy to others. Educated at Berklee College of Music, he has many musical tricks up his sleeve. Intent on being a highly technical player, he has created a unifying style that integrates funk along with melodic genius. This unique approach to combining the musical flow and groove set by percussion is simply outstanding. Johnnie brings the art of music back to the stage with his amazing style and talent. James Varnado, an extremely funky drummer, has traveled abroad playing for some of the top performing musicians in the world. Born in the musical hub of New Orleans, Louisiana, his pride and style strongly reflect where he came from. His love for entertaining people, coupled with his God- inspired passion, gives him personal drive to share his awesome talent with the world. James has a true gift of setting the groove - and the audience - in motion. Each member of Come Back Alice has played as primary of stand-in musicians for many national acts; this experience contributes to their tight sound and professionalism both on and off the stage.
