Alberto Pizarro

Guitarist – In 1995, attending Bethune Elementary School of the Arts in South Florida, Alberto’s musical studies began in the 3rd grade, after being kicked out of 3-D Art class for misbehaving.. Something he believes to be one of the best things to ever happen to him.

Alberto began studying the Violin in his strings class, under the direction of Mrs, Evelyn Treer. Within about one years time, he was asked and encouraged to join the All County Honors Orchestra of Broward County FL – an experience he says he will never forget.

After giving up the strings and music for 4 years, Alberto eventually picked up the guitar and took a guitar class at South Broward High School – under the direction of one Jackie Parsons – an instructor he says he’ll always admire. Within a couple years of practice and study, Alberto knew exactly what he wanted to eventually become, which is a professional Guitarist to the highest degree possible.

Alberto has about 25 years of musical experience, has been a professional musician for nearly 20 and has worked with many different bands and musicians.
He has toured up and down the East Coast of the U.S. – opening for such acts as: Foghat, Buddy Guy, Los Lonely Boys and Candle Box. Presently, he is the lead guitarist for “Meet Loaf: The Ultimate Meat Loaf Tribute” and “Fleatwood Mac: The Premier Tribute to Fleetwood Mac”.

Alberto currently works as an instructor at Guitar Center in Hallandale, Fl. He also teaches private lessons but coincidentally considers himself a student – always.

Bassist – David Carrey is a bassist that specializes in pop, funk, rock, and diversity in general.

Marcos Pizarro

Drummer – Naturally wanting to follow in his older brother’s footsteps, Marcos began his musical journey learning to play the violin at Bethune Elementary School of the Arts in Hollywood, FL under the same great teacher that his brother, Alberto, had – Mrs. Evelyn Treer. When he started at Attucks Middle School right next door, he fell in love with the drums thanks to band director, Mr. Stewart Rabin, who encouraged and guided him in the beginning of his journey with the drums.

Marcos began learning to play drums in a rock setting as well as concert percussion throughout middle school. Following his brother once again to the same school, Marcos started high school and immediately joined the South Broward High School Marching Bulldog Band. He immediately fell in love with the drum line (he still remembers the first day he walked into the band room for rehearsal) and studied under many great instructors including the one and only, Jackie Parsons and Mr. Deen President. Marcos says these two music teachers taught him what it looks like to bring out your passion for music and work hard to achieve goals. During Marcos’ sophomore year, the band program gained another amazing band director by the name of Octavio Cedeno, who Marcos considers to be like a cousin and who taught him many things about music, how to be an effective leader, and general life lessons.

Marcos continued playing in the marching band as Drum Captain as well as symphonic band, jazz band, and drum line. After high school, Marcos continued studying music in college, focusing on jazz drums at Broward College, studying under Mr. Rudolfo Zuniga, considering him to be one of the most talented drummers he has ever seen. Marcos continued to study music part-time in college and played in several bands including The Republik, Forge, Tone Rivers, Goose Caboose, and Idle Minds.

Marcos continued his music studies at Florida State University where he studied classical piano under Dr. Sjtin De Cock. Marcos earned a Bachelor of Arts in Music degree from FSU in 2022 and is currently in graduate school at Florida State studying to become a board-certified music therapist – all whilst touring with national tribute acts, Meet Loaf & Fleatwood Mac.
