Who's Who

Kelly Cooper (Rockette)
Kelly Cooper started her love of singing at a very early age in Dallas, Texas where she grew up singing, acting and dancing at the Dallas Theater Center. A true musical theater dork- she would sneak into piano bars and belt out songs to whatever tune they were playing. Her love soon changed to rock music as she moved to New York City and started hearing all of the brilliant songwriting that was going on in the city. It was in NYC that she discovered live band karaoke. Realizing its huge popularity, she decided, along with her good friend Todd Deatherage, to start her own band for karaoke- and thus- ROCK STAR KARAOKE NYC was born! Kelly also teaches pilates throughout the city- so if you want your butt kicked, drop a line!

To Kent, Dave Aaron and Bill- I love you guys (how could we share a 4 x 4 tent at Bonnaroo if I didn't)

Bill Mead (Rock God)
As drummer since age three, Bill has been stuck in the groove most his life. He dabbled in bio-physics, genetic engineering, and was even a stock broker for a while, but none of these endeavors offered the depth that he found in music. Lucky for him, musicians consistantly make handsome salaries as well as top notch health plans and retirement plans. Way to go Bill!
