Road Trip – Eagle River, WI – July 16, 2022
Road Trip is much more than your average cover band from Wisconsin!
This band puts on a real life concert with huge video screens, one of the best light shows, state of the art sound and dedicated musicians and singers who love what they do and it shows. Lights, video, sounds, smoke, dancing and screaming fans create one of the greatest shows in the Midwest!
Award winning vocalists Christopher Joseph Szebeni and Amy Jo Doty lead the band through a 3+-hour show filled with songs from everyone’s favorite artists. Pink, U2, Chris Stapleton, The Romantics, Katy Perry, Kid Rock, Maroon 5, Ozzy, Keith Urban and Guns and Roses are just a few of the bands Road Trip brings to life.
The music behind the vocals includes Jason Busse on lead guitar, DJ Doty on rhythm guitar, Robert George Welsch Jr. on bass and Matt Gieseke on drums. These musicians take playing their instruments and performing very seriously. They not only learn the songs but they create new sounds and segues to keep the audience moving, surprised and wanting more. Every show they give 100% of themselves to their fans and to the music. They want every person to experience the party that the band is throwing; loud, wild, exciting, surprising, real and up-close!
Road Trip loves their music and they love their audience just as much. Their audiences are from all over and range from 5 years old to 85 years old. They aim to please all of them while enjoying some of the best music in the world. At a Road Trip show you will see a lot of dancing, smiling, laughing and letting loose. Weddings, festivals, company parties, bars, dance clubs and other private parties are where you will find the band bringing people together one song at a time.
Road Trip has won many awards throughout the years for Cover Band of the year a few times and Female and Male Vocalist of the year. Not to mention they have been nominated in at least one category every year for the Wisconsin Area Music Industry Awards (WAMI). Both the drummer and lead guitarist won music teacher of the year by Heid Music and WAMI.
2017 and 2018 were huge growing years for Road Trip. They introduced their new state of the art light show and sound system in late 2017, and in 2018 Chris Szebeni from Boxkar joined as their new male lead singer. They also continue creating new videos and adding new music to their set lists on a consistent basis, keeping their shows fresh and full of energy.
Road Trip is a band that brings people together, to help them forget about their daily lives, and to get caught up in the moment. The band members are some of the most dedicated, approachable, serious, creative, real people in the music business today. Their band is not just a hobby to them, it is their life, their passion, their craft and they don’t plan on stopping in this lifetime!
