Lee-Ann (Lead Vocals & Percussion)
Lee-Ann began vocal training at age 10 and has been singing much of her life in various venues
including musical theater, a-cappella groups and club & wedding bands.
She has a very wide vocal range and loves all kinds of rock and pop music.
Lee-Ann has been a member of Shore Soundz since its inception in 2007
and is also a member of "Mixed Company Quartet", a 2 male/2 female a-cappella group.
Other than being with her family and close friends, there is no greater feeling

Bob (Lead Vocals & Bass)
Bob has been the singing bass player in Shore Soundz since its inception in 2007.
His rock & jazz playing influences, coupled with his strong baritone vocals
make him a perfect leading member of any band.
Bob spent many years performing as a guitarist as well, but since bass players were hard to find,
he added bass to his list of musical talents during his 3rd year at Rutgers.
He purchased his first bass on campus for $20, which he still has and still plays on occasion.
From 1980 'till 1982, Bob co-hosted a cable TV show called "The Christy Show"
which interviewed the newest bands and he also performed in a duo called "Parkway West".
This show's concept and format is believed to have provided the foundation for MTV.
  
Alan (Drums & Percussion)
Alan hails from Sydney, Australia where he had
a long career playing in original and cover bands.
He has played many different styles including
rock, funk, swing, country, dance and R&B for clubs and weddings.

the singer while adding some spice and fire when called upon.
Moving to the United States in 2003, Alan worked with a number of
Jersey Shore cover bands before joining Shore Soundz in 2008.
Alan's crisp, inventive style is held in high regard by fellow musicians and audiences alike.
