With Susan Bicker on vocals, guitar, and harmonica, and Tim Bazzone on guitar and back-up vocals, The Rust Project acoustic duo is creating a fun, entertaining experience for it's audiences. We are anything but boring! Our acoustic shows are energetic, and you’ll hear songs you probably wouldn’t expect to hear from an acoustic act. Crazy Train, Honky Tonk Woman, Coretz the Killer....we rock our acoustic sets and jam some great tunes. Tap your toes, dance, shake a tambourine, or hang out and sing along....we love audience participation. Do we take requests? Absolutely! We want to play the songs you know and love. What can you expect to hear? We play Tom Petty, The Rolling Stones, The Offspring and Dr. Hook, so many more... but then there is Neil Young...
If you read through our song list, you'll see we play quite a few Neil Young songs. We are big fans of his music, and from time to time we play special tribute nights to Neil Young. From Heart of Gold to Rockin' In The Free World (and anything in between) we strive to capture the sound and feel of his music.
If you’ve never seen us, come on out and check us out. Normal is boring. We’re anything but boring!
In addition to our acoustic duo, The Rust Project can play as a four-piece electric band. If you're looking for a rocking good time, check out our full band at http://www.therustproject.com
