Kenny Cordova (Lead Vocals) “I’M JUST A SINGER IN A ROCK AND ROLL BAND.” Kenny has been singing and entertaining for over fifty years. Kenny did his first public appearance at the age of four and participated in several talent shows and school programs throughout his educational years. He was the lead singer for the Fabulous Fury’s during his high school career. Kenny did a solo act while raising his son and daughter and has been the front man for the Olde Rock Band for over 18 years. The band has been voted the “Best Band” and Kenny has been the only vocalist to have been voted in the “Best Musician” category and received many other accolades from the Fort Collins Coloradoan’s “Best of Fort Collins.” Kenny says, “When I’m on stage, I live my dream, and I can’t wait to entertain you -- Rock on!!”

 

   

Brian Collins (Keyboard and Vocals) Brian was born and raised in the mountains of Colorado. All his life he had a piano to play. It was one of the first things his father bought upon discovering Brian’s blindness. Brian grew up playing classic rock and roll out of his home studio. He now performs in bands and as a solo artist. He has played locally and abroad for the past ten years, and is sought after for his studio and live performances. Brian is eternally greatful to his family friends and fans, all the people that make music what it is for him today. Brian is looking forward to having the opportunity to play with Kenny and The Olde Rock Band.

   

Scott Bertea (Lead Guitar, Vocals, Sound) Scott is the second generation of Bertea's to be in the "Olde Rock Band." He took the position from his dad, Bruce Bertea when he decided to persue other musical possibilities. It was a natural transition since he had been around the music and knew all the songs after helping roadie for the band for years. Scott has played with bands artists in LA and Fort Collins alike, but he is very thankful to be a part of Kenny Cordova & The Olde Rock Band and the oppertunities it brings. His musical challenge in this band is to bring a modern flair to the greatest songs ever written. Scott looks forward to rocking with Kenny for many years to come.


   

Ian McCargar (Drums, Vocals) Ian became permanently attached to rock and roll one February night in 1964 watching the Beatles on The Ed Sullivan Show. Ian is a lifelong student of rock and roll art form, building on rock roots from his earliest radio memories. After forming his first band at age 10, Ian wandered into jazz, classical, and Top 40, but never strayed far from his rock roots. Ian has laid down the rhythmic energy for the band since 1991, and swings, shakes, and stirs the band’s country rock, and R & B cocktail!

 

 

Scott Surine (Bass) Scott has been playing bass for over 35 years. At SUNY Binghamton, he studied music theory and composition. Since the early '70s, he has played a wide variety of musical styles, ranging from Country to Rock, from Top 40 to Blues, from R&B to Reggae, from Soca to Soukous, continually searching for a unique voice on bass that is both supportive and expressive. In the late '70s, Scott toured the Midwest with a Country band, honing his skills in the practice of "Less is More." In the mid ‘80s, Scott performed with The Coasters, Little Anthony, Fabian, and the Marvelettes in a band that backed these ‘60s legends. Scott has used his experiences and knowledge in music and design to create his own product line of ergonomic basses, and created Surine Basses. Visit Scott’s website at: http://www.surinebasses.com
