The Musicians
Warren E. Bown
Bass/Vocals
Original member of Over the Edge since 2009. This band was Warren’s idea and musical baby. He had been wanting to put a full band together since his first band Cimaron. He contacted a few musicians, held auditions and finally found all the right pieces.
Dan Mockensturm
Guitar/Vocals
Original member of Over the Edge since 2009. Very active on the local music scene having been in a number of local bands and playing in many of the local clubs and party venues. Friend with many of the local musicians and music fans.
Richard Grimolizzi
Keyboards/Vocals
One of the main ingredients is this style of band is the keyboards. Over the Edge went through a few players until we found the person with the right attitude, sounds and playing abilities. The keyboards are essential to our sound.
Paul Betz
Drums/Vocals
Paul is a rare find and perfect for this band – a lead singer with great vocal range that can play drums. He has a keen musical sense and really adds to the vocal abilities of this bands’ sound.
