Mike and the Monsters

“A female fronted Five piece rock powerhouse”

Mike and the Monsters cover a wide range and variety of music, performed with energy, professionalism, style and true rock and roll conviction! Modern sounds, classic rock and maximum danceable party rock make up the Monsters musical repertoire.

All Monster members are experienced Capital District and regional music veterans, coming together with one goal " to deliver the goods“ with a great live show and to keep people coming back for more! Deep musicianship, multi-vocals along with the great selling point and secret weapon in lead vocalist Michaele Ann Flynn, build a solid foundation for a Monster house of good times and great music!!!

Michaele Ann Flynn "Mike"
Lead Vocalist

Hi ya! I'm Michaele Ann (aka - Mike) and I have been a long time rocker in the upstate capital area. Fronting several original and cover bands performing from Albany, N.Y. and it's surrounding cities including  Massachusettes, Boston, Syracuse, and New York City. The band I have been  noted for is "Tokyo Rose" also known as "Shovelhead." This original band of 9 years had an "Evanescence/Pantera" feel. With Shovelhead in the past, I took a short break. Needing to get back to performing, I opted to build a band complete with some of the most established and well rounded players in the area. Creating one of the best Pop/Rock cover bands in the area. "Mike (ME)... and the Monsters" are rockin everyone with the newest, hottest covers, and the best classic's! See you at the next show!! Peace & Love!!! Mike!!! (BTW - YES..Mike is my real name!)

Michael Smith
Drums/Vocals
Mike Smith on Drums!!! (In this band he is known as "M.J.".... as there is only 1 Mike allowed in "Mike and the Monsters!") M.J. has a long history in the Rock-n-roll music business. It must be the Angelic face, eyes of Christ, and long flowing hair that keeps him so young...and... YUMMY!! As his lady fans refer to him! Seriously..M.J. plays with several local bands continuously filling in when needed, but his creation of the "Judas Priest" cover band known as "British Steele" is one of his greatest accomplishments! So glad M.J. decided to join forces with "Mike and the Monsters!" U ROCK Brother!! And to all the ladies...make sure u get to our gigs.. U just gotta see this boy whip that hair around!!

Vincent Rao
Guitar
Vince, also known as "Shred" has come to "Mike and the Monsters" to rip it up!!! Vince's history takes us back to an all original band "Monolith" performing from 1985 through 1995. After a decade, he then joined forces with some of our other current "Monsters" to "rock it" in a "Judas Priest" tribute band called "British Steel" which currently still kicks ass in the upstate area!(Check them out!!)Vince plays "Jackson Guitars" and "Marshall" amps. His love of music makes it easy for him to listen and play metal such as "Slayer,"while downing a beer,and before you know it... the "ROMANTIC" side has him in front of the fire with a glass of Chardonnay singing songs by "Journey" and serenading..... (BTW- Mike wrote this bio..lol!! ;)~ anyhow.. Vince is awesome!!! Come out and party with him!!!
Andy Peseka
Guitar
Andy is a kind of quiet guy. So... I guess if you want some info.. your gonna have to show up at one of our gigs and ask him yourself! I know one secret.....he KICKS ASS ON GUITAR!!! :)
Larry "Tucker"
Bass Guitar / Backing Vocals
Camera Shy... Larry, known as "Tucker" to most.. is a little slow at getting a photo and bio, but thats ok.. I'll just make up some embarrassing things about him. Like....he shaves his armpits, cause he likes them really smooth...and ...he likes to suck his own toes..eeewww.. gross!! Just kidding!!! Tucker is great! (Maybe this will get him moving! LOL!)
