The Lauderdales
Chris Kovic (keyboards and vocals) and Steve Peck (guitars and vocals) met as players in the Asbury United Methodist Church Celebration worship band.
They agreed to perform as an acoustic duo for a church special event. In preparing for the event, they realized they enjoyed playing together and brought similar, but different experiences and preferences to the effort.
Chris played in progressive rock bands at UF and upon graduation began playing around Central Florida. He was quickly accepted into the local music scene and became a preferred side man, playing with many working bands in the area.
A member of many garage bands in high school, Steve took a hiatus during college and the first few years after. Suffering from early onset middle aged crazy, he got back into playing in rockabilly and blues bands in Knoxville, TN.
Chris and Steve bring their varied experiences together in a wide ranging repertoire of audience friendly songs. They encourage audience participation - singing along and joining in the ongoing conversation.
The Lauderdales will provide your event, or venue, a happy, exuberant experience, sure to please any audience.
