Marky C - Lead Vocalist, Band Leader
Offstage, Marky C is all business, but when the curtain opens and the lights come up, he is uncontainable. Jumping off the stage, dancing with the crowd, singing to the ladies, and random running around are standard protocol for Marky.
Marky C is a child of the 80s and simply loves the music, fun, and happy memories from that era. Cruisin' to the sounds of Oingo Boingo with his quad surfboard on his Karman Ghia with his flat-top and top-siders, Marky C was in Heaven.
And with Freeze Frame, he still is.

Madana - Lead Vocalist
As a young teen in the days of “Madonna Wanna-Bees”, Madana was no stranger to this new breed of “material” girls.
She would dance around the living room, hairbrush in hand (her microphone, of course), singing “Like a Virgin” for
the family dog. It was right around that time that Madana was abducted by aliens.
They studied her carefully while she danced out the entire routine to “Thriller”, fluffed and teased her hair with
Aquanet and played PacMan for hours. Learning these strange Gen-X type behaviors would allow the aliens to blend
in and eventually take over the Earth. But, little did they know that Madana had a secret weapon…her VOICE.
Her “siren-song” was like kryptonite to the aliens and she was able to destroy them in one note and save the Earth.
Since that time, she’s traded-in her cape for fingerless gloves and a bow, and uses her vocal “super powers” for good,
not evil. She has joined forces with the Freeze Frame band to protect and serve mankind.

PJ Geils - Keyboards, Rythm Guitar, Vocals, etc.
Born the illegitmate son of a circus clown and concert violinist, PJ showed signs of early musical genius and skill
in the arts of music and juggling. His attempts to combine the two ended tragically with the loss of his left pinky toe.
His resulting weakness on the athletic field and boredom in the academic field led him to a life of teenage isolation.
He spent his time studying the musical masters of his time like Michael Jackson, Elvis Costello, Gary Numan, and that
other guy from Wham! His mother nurtured his musical abilities while his father taught him how to walk in large shoes.
In 1989, at the age of 18, a freak accident involving a roll of Mentos and a 2 liter bottle of Diet Coke took his short-term memory.
Unable to learn any new material, P.J. has found a home in Freeze Frame, where he can still use his ability to play the music he
loves from the only era he clearly remembers.

Zac Attack - Drums
Born in the sheltered rolling plains of the heartland of the US, Zac was first introduced to music watching “Animal” on the Muppet Show.
His parents bought him his first drumset and he worked many hours, attacking the drums like his hero. As he grew up, “Zac Attack”
watched movies like “Fast Times at Ridgemont High” and “Valley Girl”, and started playing the 80’s music he heard coming out of California,
bands like Van Halen and Oingo Boingo. His first gig was playing Farm Aid but was quickly removed from the stage in shackles after trying to
EAT Willie Nelson's drums. He decided to move to the shores of San Diego, where he could learn to surf, play live music and eat drums with
other Animals. Zac Attack loves Freeze Frame because he loves the feel of a raucous and wily dance party.

Trevor "The Hammer" - Lead Guitar
Because his parents gave him the second-most-British name in the entire commonwealth
(it's straight behind Nigel and just a smidge ahead of King Henry VIII), Trevor decided
to visit the land of his ancestors. During tea-time one midsummer day, whilst pondering
the differences between “New Wave,” “Dark Wave” and “New Wave of British Heavy Metal”,
he lighted upon the idea that he should make music his chosen field of study.
Well, all of those Friday night algebra parties and Saturday-long rehearsals paid off,
for this spud is now able to play all of those fast notes way up on the high strings,
while simultaneously jumping around like a crazed Marmoset!

G-Man - Bass, Vocals
Having lived a sheltered childhood, G-man was not into the music and pop culture of the 70's. He found
that it didn't stimulate him, so he just didn't bother. Instead, he spent his time playing baseball, riding
his bike and getting into mischief. Then came the 80's and all that changed. He heard music, the likes
of which had never been heard before. He saw colorful clothing that looked like it was from outer space.
He began to notice girls even though they didn't notice him and he said to himself, 'I like it'. It was then that
G-man decided to be a rock star. So he bought a bass (4 strings had to be easier than 6) and began teaching
himself how to play. Soon he was playing the likes of DEVO, The Clash, Duran Duran and Blondie in rock bands.
Now, nearly 30 yrs. later, he still loves to play the music of the 80's, he still loves the outer space look, and
the girls still don't notice him. But that's OK because he's livin' his dream of being a rock star in a San Diego
based, 80's tribute band called Freeze Frame. Stop in and see one of their shows and you'll see why
G-man hasn't grown up yet.
