Drew Dillard
Bass Guitarist, Vocalist
Born in Central Jersey, Drew began playing live rock music venues at the Jersey shore in the early seventies. He moved to California in 1976 where the West Coast Vibe reveled a more open style of music. During that time, he played in various cover bands and bands that played originals, doing studio work playing all genre of music styles. In 1977, Drew did his first road tour up the California coast to Canada with an 8 piece horn band called Clean Slate and discovered Funk music, Slapp bass and the Groove. Undoubtedly this helped him shape and form his modern urban funky rock style and sound that you will hear him play.
In 1979, he started his first music business called M.A.D. Dog Production where he critiqued local garage bands and helped them grow & booked them in various local venues in Central California. With a new focus being a song writer of original music, Drew continued to do what he loved by performing locally and building a community of musicians.
In 1986, Drew moved back to the Jersey shore but when he couldn't find work as a bassist, invested in a P.A. sound system and hired himself out to any local bands that needed a sound system with great success, staying connected to the music scene. In 1990, he did some soul searching and was involved with various churches in South Jersey doing praise and worship music, leading, directing, and supporting the commitment.
From 2000 Drew did a lot of studio session work in a south Jersey studio called New Moon Music and has been performing on stages in the south Jersey area, appearing with many well known local artists playing the Casino venues and local bars & restaurants before moving to South West Florida in 2017.
Bob LaBoy
Drums, Vocalist
I consider myself a late bloomer. I started playing drums at the age of 12 fueled by the British invasion. Growing up in Brooklyn, NY, there was not much to do so I started playing the drums as a hobby to pass the time. I learned to play mainly by listening to songs and studying different drummers. At a time when every kid wanted to be in a band, I got to jam with my friends and really find my own voice as a musician.
I moved to New Jersey in the "Summer of 69", (pun intended) and played in a few garage bands. Playing with a variety of artists and musicians helped me improve my craft. After high school, I took a break from the music, got married, got divorced, and after a while, slowly finding myself and finding my way back to music slowly got back to the music.
When I remarried, we moved to Florida not realizing there was a
great music scene here. I started making contacts and started filling in for several area bands. After I was asked to fill-in for a few gigs with Limited Edition, I've been with the band ever since. Limited Edition is a great group of musicians and always an experience to work with never a dull moment.
