The Ifficial Reggae Band is a stand out musical group. With their explosive style and mesmerizing 'riddims' it's no wonder the band members always sport a smile on stage as they jump around.

Each of the band's members brings years of experience together to create this extremely energetic sound. Look for their highly anticipated CD to be released mid 2008. Livingston (Lead Vocals) has been surrounded by singers his entire life. As a child, his mother and father sang in churches all over his native island of Jamaica. The Montego Bay born vocalist and songwriter has a very unique and impressive style that displays the smoothness of roots and lover's rock, and the roughness of dancehall. Influenced by artists such as Luciano, Buju Banton, Sanchez, Capleton, and of course Bob Marley, Livingston's goal each performance is to electrify audiences, keeping them wanting more. Darryl (Bass) has been on the Reggae scene in Chicago for twenty years. He has played with some of the best in Reggae, including Frankie Paul, Nardo Ranks, Marcia Griffiths, and the legendary Dennis Brown. His entrancing bass lines are bound to reel you in and have you at the band's mercy. Darryl a.k.a. Organized is also a dynamic singer and deejay that you won't want to miss. Judah (Keyboard) has been a fixture on the reggae scene since 1989 when he was then playing the Bass. Judah's father urged him to start playing the piano at an early age and he even formed an a cappella group called the Soul Crusaders, singing all over the Midwest. He gave up his music to pursue a career in business, but returned to his first love upon the death of his father. In 1997, he formed a band and since that time has also played with several local artists. Judah is also a composer of conscious music that will leave you inspired. Mark (Drums) is one of the liveliest performers you will ever see. Coming from generations of drummers, he has been greatly influenced by gospel music. His energy and enthusiasm always keeps party goers entranced. Be prepared to sweat just from watching him as he plays with an intense style ' making it look effortless.
Deficit is old school metal combined with new age Lamb of god style. A sound that is just waiting to be heard. Influences such as Slayer, Metallica, Megadeth and Lamb of god. Deficit is Eric Szczesny (Rhythm Guitar and Vocals), Josh Lloyd (Lead Guitar), Dave Lloyd (Drums), and Mark Harrison (Bass and Backup Vocals). Based out of the Chicagoland area since 2003. With one three song demo recorded in late 2003 and shows at such places as 602 North, The Rave, Clearwater Theater, Arabian Knights Farms, and many more. Thanks for checking us out. To tell you a little about the Deficit, we formed in 2002. We started out when Eric (vocals/guitar) and Josh (lead guitar) started playing in the forth grade. We started playing more and more and then in sixth grade we started playing Metallica covers of Enter Sandman at our school in battle of the bands. After we stated playing Metallica songs Josh's brother Dave wanted to join in the fun and play as well. So he got a drum set and started to learn how to play the Metallica covers with us. After a year of playing cover songs and becoming comfortable with each other, we started writing our own music. In early 2003 after completing our first song, entitled Monastery Barricade, we then met up with our first bassist, Rosario Spaccaferro. We now had a full band together and things were going well. We started writing as many songs as we could and practiced as much as possible. In early 2003, we won a first place prize of $1000 in our first ever battle of the bands against 42 other bands. After we had about three or four songs written and completed we decided to go to the studio and record our very first three song demo. After we released the demo we started playing a lot of shows and trying to get our music out there as much as we could. Then mid 2004 Rosario had to leave the band to go to college. So now we were without a bassist for the first time since we started. We went on for about a year trying to still play shows and look for new a bassist's. We stopped playing shows for a while because of school and other activities and so the band kind of took a few month break from everything. After a few months had passed and we had barely even talked to each other we decided that it was time to get this thing going again. So we started to practice again and we made up about 5 or 6 more songs. Then we started booking shows again and playing more than we ever had. It was really starting to be ok not having a bassist. Then one of our friends Mark Harrison decided that he would try out for the position. He was Amazing. He just blew us out of the water with his talent. After one practice with him we new we had a new bassist. He brought a new life to the band and after he joined we were ready for some big shows. A few weeks after Mark joined we played at the Clearwater Theater in West Dundee, IL. and it was AWESOME!!! We brought in over fifty people and stole the whole night. So now we have many shows coming up, new material always on the way, and a full band again.
