Steal The Spotlight

STEAL THE SPOTLIGHT IS A ROCK/POP BAND OUT OF NORTHEAST OHIO, SPECIFICALLY THE TRUMBULL AND MAHONING COUNTY AREAS. THE BAND IS FILLED WITH MANY DEDICATED AND EXPERIENCED MUSICIANS THAT WANT TO TAKE THIS PROJECT AS FAR AS IT WILL GO. ALL OF US HAVE BEEN IN BANDS BEFORE AND HAVE BEEN PLAYING LOCALLY FOR YEARS. JUSTIN EDWARDS (VOCALS, GUITAR) WAS IN A BAND CALLED "LYRICAL SHAKE DOWN" FOR CLOSE TO 2 YEARS, AS WELL AS DOING HIS OWN SOLO PROJECT "JUSTIN.JOSEPH.EDWARDS" FOR MOST OF HIS LIFE. HIS PARENTS BOTH TEACH MUSIC AT YOUNGSTOWN STATE UNIVERSITY, SO HE HAS BEEN AROUND THIS HIS WHOLE LIFE IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER. ZACK ORR (VOCALS, GUITAR) HAS ALSO BEEN PLAYING MUSIC HIS WHOLE LIFE. HIS FATHER IS A MUSICIAN. ZACK WAS IN A BAND CALLED "UGLY KIDS WITH CUTE FEATURES" FOR SOME TIME, PLAYING OUT CONSISTANTLY AND GATHERING FANS. JACQI THORN (VOCALS, KEYBOARDS) IS NEW TO THE MUSIC SCENE, BUT IS MORE THAN READY TO TAKE IT BY STORM! HER DEDICATION IS REMARKABLE AND SHE WILL DO ANYTHING FOR THE BAND. BRIAN MARKLE (VOCALS, BASS) HAS BEEN PLAYING MUSIC FOR A BIG CHUNK OF HIS LIFE, AND HAS BEEN IN MANY BANDS FOR THE PAST 5 YEARS, MORE NOTABLE ONES BEING "ITS ALL BEEN DONE", "THE FEAR THAT LIES BENEATH", "ANNOUNCED", "LOST IN SECOND CHANCES", "DEAD RELIGION SOCIETY (D.R.S)" AND "MAYBE LATER". HE'S BEEN VERY INTO MUSIC SINCE HE WAS VERY LITTLE WHICH HE CREDITS HIS FATHER WITH. AND LASTLY, JOSH BAYS (VOCALS, DRUMS) HAS BEEN PLAYING MUSIC FOREVER. HE FINDS IT A GREAT OUTLET TO LET STRESS GO AND JUST HAVE FUN. HE CREDITS HIS LOVE OF MUSIC TO HIS DAD, A MUSICIAN HIMSELF. SOME OF JOSH'S MORE NOTEABLE BANDS INCLUDE "DEAD RELIGION SOCIETY (D.R.S)", "ANNOUNCED", AND "ITS ALL BEEN DONE". TOGETHER, WE MAKE "STEAL THE SPOTLIGHT", A BAND THAT CAME TOGETHER WITH ONE DESTINATION... TO KICK YOUR FACE IN WITH AWESOME MUSIC.
