Maria SCHNEIDER

Lead signer Maria is best known as vocalist for Continuous Signal, a Pink Floyd Affair, where she regularly stuns audiences with her jaw-dropping performance on “Great Gig in the Sky” from “Dark Side of the Moon” and many other Floyd classics.

Originally from New Jersey, Maria attended Wagner College where she received classical training as a theatre major. Upon moving west, she has shifted gears to new aspects of live music. She is thrilled to be a part of Fly by Night LA Rush tribute.

JOHN POWERS

John started playing guitar in 7th grade and co-wrote and performed on the reggae album “Colorblind” at Paramount Studios, just out of high school. His original band Scrawny Johnnie performed twice on the Sunset House of Blues main stage, and recorded his self-titled album with the help of Matt Forger (Thriller, Bad, etc.)

Perhaps best know as “Angus Young” from the AC/DC tribute Stiff Upper Lip, John has been an avid Rush fan since junior high, has owned all of their albums, and has seen them live many times. He’s stoked to be playing guitar with a bad-ass Rush tribute band.

ERIC ZAK

Eric Zak’s music credits include SoCal Pink Floyd tribute Continuous Signal; Phoenix-based desert rock bands DevilGrass and Michael & The Pentecost; beach rock group The Distant Cities; and solo electronic albums made under the alias onemoretimeago.

He also has a background in musical theatre and is an actor for stage and screen (ericz.cool).

“I grew up surrounded by music, with my father playing piano and guitar in bands long before I was born,” says Pete. “Originally influenced by the drumming legends of the 70’s and 80’s progressive rock and jazz fusion scenes, I’ve developed a style that blends heavy, progressive, and funk rock. I’ve had the privilege of recording at iconic studios such as the Carriage House in Connecticut, Kaleidoscope Sound in New Jersey, and Fireside Sound in Joshua Tree.” Pete curretly is the drummer in several bands, performing both original music and covers, as well recording tracks in his studio.

Jim is a lifelong Rush fan (he joined his first Rush tribute band back iin high school. They were pretty bad.) A humble Geddy Lee devotee, it took a while for Jim to actually figure out what Geddy was doing.

 

Best known as the bassist for Continuous Signal, Jim’s musical experience goes back decades, playing with many bands including LA ’90s club favorite The Bridge, and fiery New York jazz fusion/hard rock instrumental 3-piece Ghodd.
