Artist Information

Biography

Is TimeLine just your run of the mill cover/classic rock band? Well guess again!

TimeLine has set out to play some of your favorites, some tunes you may not have heard in a long time and some of those "one hit wonders" that take us back in time.

TimeLine has taken the spectrum of musical genres over the generations from the 1950's up to today to be able to cater to your musical wishes at your special event.

TimeLine performs oldies, classic rock, southern rock, country, blues and much more.

TimeLine plays the music you want to hear at your private party, wedding, corporate function or favorite night spot.

TimeLine is comprised of seven veteran musicians from the Lehigh Valley who have formally played with the following acts: Blind Jordan, Double Barrel, Down Right Blue, Dot Com and the Icons, Sharon Elaine and Junction 329, In A Pinch, Impact and the Main Street Cruisers(formally Mid Life Crisis). And some of the members have performed together in some of the mentioned acts or actually have known one another over the years which makes this blend of musicians work so well.

Although TimeLine performs music of all genres and from different eras of time, we have taken great care in selecting a vast variety of music that you may have heard a lot of, may not have heard in some time or just plain fun songs that you knew but may have forgotten about.

TimeLine strives to be different, yet unique and have fun doing it.

TimeLine wants to be your "caterer" of musical delicacies so that you keep coming back for more.

  Influences: "All our influences range from the '50s all the way up to today. The idea was to do a timeline of different classic rock and country," Craig Stefko says. "We cater to your musical tastes and get our music through the decades of time."
  
  Sounds like: "We try and get a nice roundabout feel of stuff you wouldn't expect to hear," Craig Stefko says. "I'd call our sound vintage but up to date. It's a conglomeration of musical decades. There is a mellower rock side, but it's also danceable."
  
  Set list: The band put its own unique twist on a variety of genre-spanning covers -- including cuts by Joan Jett, Chuck Berry, Sugarland, Joe Cocker, Jimmy Buffet, BTO, Gretchen Wilson, Chicago and the Dixie Chicks.
  
  Know their roots: Members of the band previously performed in various Lehigh Valley-based groups before coming together a little under a year ago.
  
  After parting ways the bands original singer, Sourwine was added to group a few weeks ago.
  
  Stefko also credits drummers Ken Mayberry and Ed Stanko for helping the band with its demo CD and various gigs.
  
  "I've never been with a bunch of musicians who have learned (the songs) so quickly and learned them so good," Craig Stefko says.
  
  "We're really hoping this opens the door and people will start coming out and hear us. Since we're new, people are kind of hesitant but that's the business. I think once people hear us, they'll ask us to come back out."
  
  Catch them if you can: The band will perform Saturday night at the Classic Rock and Roll Cafe in Allentown.
  

Setlist

A typical set list for TimeLine consists of approximately 12 songs. For every 4 or 5 fast songs a slower song is mixed in. A typical set would be approximately 50 minutes in length with a 15 minute break. This of course would depend on the venue and what is required or requested. Music during breaks is available.

At the present time, TimeLine is performing covers. TimeLine does not have a typical set list as the set lists can change from venue to venue so we can "cater" to whomever we are performing for.

Our rates are based on the degree of difficulty of equipment load in time, travel time and total time of our performance.

For weddings, anniversary, private or corporate parties, taped music is available between sets when requested. Special recorded or live requests will be provided. Requests should be submitted within a reasonable amount of time prior to the performance so the request can be recorded or so the band can obtain the proper music for the request.

There will an additional charge for an extra set or extended performance time. Rates will depend on the time, length, next scheduled performance, voice and will be determined or arranged prior to the job.
