Brothers Paul Zone, Miki Zone & Mandy Zone formed THE FAST in the mid 70s somewhere between glam & punk and soon became an integral part of the Max's/CBGB scene along side Blondie & The Ramones with their blend of power pop & garage punk. In the late 1970s Mandy went on to perform and record with his band OZONE. As MAN 2 MAN, Paul & Miki went on to composed, produced & perform songs that would come to define an era in 80s Euro dance/pop and their club sensation "Male Stripper" became a 1 pop hit throughout Europe, Austalia, South America & Mexico. 

---------------
THE FAST: 

In 1975, with New York punk just around the corner, The Fast were already a headlining act at Max's Kansas City & CBGB in New York right from the start and by 1976 their first single "Boys Will Be Boys" for CBS Records UK produced by Bobby Orlando (Pet Shop Boys / Flirts / Bobby O / Divine) was released. Their sound & style was developed with 60s mod pop elements and the use of synths years before they became a staple for 80s New Wave. Their second single "It's Like Love" produced by Richard Gottehrer (Raveonettes / Blondie / Go Go's / Strangeloves) in 1977 was again a blending of electronic synth sounds and bubblegum pop. Throughout '78 & '79 The Fast toured the US and caught the eye & ear of Ric Ocasek who brought them on a tour of stadiums with The Cars and produced 50% of their first LP In 1980 "The Fast For Sale" and in 1981, their second LP, "Leather Boys From The Asphalt Jungle" would be the last time Paul & Miki would record with a live band. In 1982, The Fast go electronic, Paul & Miki tour up & down the east coast now with two back-up keyboard players. In 1983, for the first time as a duo they performed at New York City's Harrah, s.n.a.f.u., The Pyramid & The Mudd Club with keyboards, electronics & backing tapes.

MAN 2 MAN: 

In 1983 they recorded a few tracks with the first Fast producer Bobby Orlando (one being an early version of Male Stripper) and got bookings in bigger dance clubs like The Fun House, Limelight & The Saint in New York City and at Heaven in London. At this time they started calling themselves Man 2 Man, recorded self produced 12inch dance singles and would have popular chart topping club hits world wide by 1985. They continued as a live act, touring alongside Sylvester & Divine in clubs and venues holding up to 5000 people in the UK, South America & Mexico. A re-recording of Male Stripper co-Produced with Man Parrish was released as a b-side in 1986 and DJ's around the world fliped the record over and it shot to number 1 on the dance charts. In March of 1987 Male Stripper went on to become a break out, cross over number 1 pop hit and landed them on the most important music TV show in Europe, "Top Of The Pops" in England.

BIO: EGO
Ego is a solo project by Ernest Grice.  Ernie is a life-long songwriter/music veteran who has found a love in recording and producing music.  His love for music started at the ripe young age of 4 when he first heard The Beatles. He taught himself to play guitar at the age of 12 and can play many instruments; although he considers himself to be a master of NONE!  Fast forward and his musical tastes, influences and abilities are vast and diverse!  Over the years, Ernie has played in regionally successful bands in the Midwest (Sahara Jack, Haphazzard, 89 Mojo) to name a few. He has played in front of thousands of people and opened for critically acclaimed acts.  That was then… Now, his passion is writing and recording.   For his sophomore album, EGO: ERNEST ARIAN, Ernie wanted to record an album that had a classic rock/alt-rock/indie rock/power pop rock flare and pay tribute to his influences.  The GOAL of this album was to strive to search for the perfect hook and write and record a rock opera.   He partnered with his long time songwriting buddy Grant June (89 mojo) and Nick “Rad” Radovanovic (Skies fall Studios) for this monumental task.  For his “Rock Opera”, the goal was to write a 10 minute + song, with different keys/different tempos/different time signatures, blend several songs within the song seamlessly together and tell an Epic Tale while paying tribute to those who have done this before (Queen, The Who, Meatloaf, Led Zepplin, David Bowie, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Radiohead).  The result is “Feast of all Saints”.  This song tells the tale of the Antichrists journey in Revelations from a first person human perspective.  At this juncture in his musical journey, Ernie is happy to trade the cheers of the crowd for the solitude of his home studio, which consists of a supped up Apple computer and some AMAZING software.

Voodoo Dancer

Voodoo Dancer is a culmination of musicians from different local bands around the Long Island/Queens area.
Friends since the inception of the New Wave and Big Hair Band days, the members of Voodoo Dancer decided to bring each of their individual talents to the table in order to create what they felt would be a ‘local super band’ of sorts.
The years of experience can easily be heard on each track of their debut CD ‘Hello It’s Us’.
In a couple of instances, songs were written in one era, while enhanced, completed, and recorded in another. In today’s expanded and eclectic music venue, Voodoo Dancer holds their own and delivers the goods. Choose to rock out while listening to the war-like drum beat of ‘It Doesn’t Matter’, get lost in the mysticism of ‘Arietta Please’ or Machiavellian Order’, mellow to the acoustic simplicity of ‘Hello It’s Me’, or dance to the Pop rhythm of ‘Forever Girl ’, Love Me Tonight and She Knows with Awesome Melodies.
It’s all there. And gets better with each listen. That’s the earmark of a great recording.
Our Second Cd SPOILS OF THE SOIL is an up beat Alternative Rock with a twist, listen to it you wont be disappointed.

Warren Passaro – Lead Vocals/Acoustic Guitar
Steve Drizis – Lead/Rhythm/Acoustic Guitar

Monstro Flora is an L.A. band with roots in Austin, TX and songs that reveal the not always pretty trail of late night drinks, loss, hope, wonder, recklessness, love, heart break and mystery, exploring both the beautiful and the terrible sides of experience.
The band employs dynamic extremes of light and dark with a bold and at times delicately artful approach to pop sensible songs.
Monstro Flora has recently finished recording their debut EP "Between The Stars" which was produced by Greg Richling (The Wallflowers, Bigbang, etc.) and released in August 2011. The same month Monstro Flora was named "Artist Of The Month" by the Deli Magazine Los Angeles.
