THE WORLD'S BEST COVER BAND WITH INTERNATIONAL FAME IN GLOBAL PROPORTIONSPrepare yourselves, if you can, for cover songs performed with such energy and attitude, with voices so pure andperformances so transcendent, that you might just find yourself,against your better judgment, dancing so hard thatyour legs snap off, leaving your torso flopping helplessly--yet happily--into a musical oblivion. Such is the power of ThePine Mountain Logs.For these are no ordinary covers. Surprises lurk around every corner. The Police's "Message in a Bottle" mightunexpectedly turn into the theme from "Gilligan's Island." The chorus toNeil Diamond’s"Sweet Caroline" couldtransition into the chorustoGuns N Roses, "Sweet Child O’ Mine"creating something all-together different, but stillinfectiously sing-along-able!Any song could end with the 70s tag "Solid Gold"--and often does.Because this is not your average cover band. The Pine Mountain Logs aretheinsidious alter egos of the popularSouthern California band Venice. Praised for their pitch-perfect harmonies and stunning live shows by superstars likeDavid Crosby, who calls them "the best vocal group in the country and one of the best bands I have ever heard," andJackson Browne, who calls them "quintessentially Californian," Venice has cultivated quite the reputation, bothdomestically and internationally, for their brilliant musicianship, remarkable vocal stylings, and lyrics that are intelligentand often laced with wit.But when these talented singers and musicians morph into the Pine Mountain Logs, brothers Mark Lennon (vocals) andMichael Lennon (guitars), and their cousin Kipp Lennon (vocals), along with Mark Harris (bass), Dann Gillen (drums) andChris Horvath (keys and guitar), take the opportunity to really cut loose, have fun, and create the biggest communalparty in town.The Logs' repertoire of high energy classics range fromAlanis toZeppelinand literallythe Jackson Five,The Who, TLC,Duran Duran,Doobie Brothers, REM, and Earth Wind &Fire, in between. Allarereinterpreted with thatLogstouch,clever transitions and unexpected medleys show off a wicked sense of humor. Songs you love! Songs you hate!!Mumbled lyrics!!!Check out a headlining show in the Los Angeles / San Diego area,and dance to the entire history of pop music packedinto one sweaty evening. Then you too can tell all your friends, I sawed the Logs!
