- CoCoComa before they called it a day
CoCoComa, one of the most exciting bands to come out of Chicago, formed in 2005 as a duo of guitarist Lisa Roe and drummer and vocalist Bill Roe (“I was forced to learn how to sing and drum,” he notes) and shortly after added Mike Fitzpatrick on bass and organ. The band became a full-fledged garage-rock powerhouse, perhaps the best Chicago has ever seen. Their songs are high-energy rompers fueled by the entire band’s over-the-top enthusiasm as well as Bill’s nonstop drum stomp and charismatic vocals.
So someone should get married ASAP and hire CoCoComa as the entertainment. Because they’re still just the best.
