Glory Tributes performed for our outdoor End-of-Summer party of 125 guests and they were great! They have a great repertoire of popular girl band cover songs, and had quite a few guests grooving to the tunes. They were very professional, confirmed all details, arrived on time, but most importantly, entertained our guests with great music. They definitely added a lot of energy to our party and we received a lot of compliments on the band from our guests. Highly recommended!

Glory features talented musicians and pristine vocals
Glory’s seasoned musicians enthusiastically recreate the melodies and harmonies of beloved female anthems. Our classically trained and theatrically experienced vocal team deliver a memorable and energetic performance, with 100% authentic vocals (no recordings), guaranteed.
Lisa Allen
Lead Vocals
Lisa studied classical voice in the bel canto style under dramatic tenor Carl Franzen at the Franzen Opera Studio. After performing in many local musical theater productions and classical concerts, she entered the world of live band performance and was hooked!
She possesses a four-octave vocal range and embraces the challenge of singing across a variety of musical genres. Her powerful, resonant voice and energetic performance style keeps audiences entertained! After singing primarily male material in a few different bands, Lisa was inspired to create a female tribute concept that would be both irresistible and diverse - Glory! When she is not singing, you might find her training at the gym or working as a library page. She is incredibly grateful to all the musicians in Glory for embarking on this journey of 100% Girl Music!
Magdalena Velasquez
Vocals, Backing Vocals
Maggie discovered the stage later in life and her ten wonderful years in musical theater were a real adventure! As an alto, she enjoyed several principal roles..... sometimes without a microphone and learned the art of projection. Theater introduced a friendship with Lisa Allen that would carry her through to the world of Rock n Roll with several bands. Maggie's performance style will make you call for MORE! She thanks her many muses throughout her life for the tools they provided leading up to this very moment in life.
Andrew Berger
Lead Guitar
Andrew has been playing guitar since the age of nine. He participated in his high school's jazz band and was the standout guitarist in his district. He has also played the national anthem at a football game and has played in various talent shows for fundraising events. His seemingly effortless technique is truly inspiring to behold! Andrew is currently attending college studying Math and Music, and also teaches guitar. He continues to hone his skills in multiple genres of music under the tutelage of veteran bay area guitarist, Russ Pettit. In his free time you may find him at local open blues jams.
Don Dias
Keyboards/Synth
Don is a native to the Bay Area. His first paying gig was playing guitar for his Grandfather’s combo and it was onward and upward from there! He toured with Granddad's band, Banjo Bingo, throughout the Florida Keys, playing a variety of instruments from the ukulele to the accordion. At one fateful gig in Islamorada, Don's ability to moonwalk while performing caused him to accidentally fall off the stage and into the sea, where he was summarily stung repeatedly by a bloom of aggressive box jellyfish.
This incident convinced Don to return to the Bay Area, where he found work playing the double contrabass flute at a clothing-optional cabaret club in Concord. Unfortunately, a small but well organized group of displaced Cambodian Buddhist monks repeatedly protested the club, causing it to close down. Inspired by their peaceful tenacity, Don took a vow of silence and went into seclusion for six years and six days to contemplate his future as a musician. He eventually found the instrument of his destiny, the keyboards, and to this day, loves the challenge of being able to combine analogue and digital sounds.
Chris Laurel
Bass Guitar
Chris Laurel started learning music at age seven and has a wide range of multi-instrumental experience. He minored in music in college and currently teaches modal theory to music students. He is also adept at lead and rhythm guitar and has dabbled in many other instruments. He has played guitar in the band RoShamBo, and bass in the band Magic Wanda. Chris brings a high degree of energy and charisma to his stage performance.
Kinya Pollard
Harmonica/Backing Vocals
(link hidden)nya Pollard learned in the 70’s that playing the harmonica in a rock band was significantly more hip than playing the Eb Sousaphone Tuba in the marching band. For numerous years, Kinya has been seen and heard playing and teaching the Diatonic, Chromatic and DM48 midi harmonicas throughout the Bay Area.
From Germany to Japan, Kinya is known as the Harpsmith -- instructing serious harmonica players about harmonica maintenance and customization. His video instructions and forums can be found at David Barrett’s (link hidden)
Mark Smith
Drums, Backing Vocals
Mark Smith has been a drummer and percussionist since he was 10 years old. He grew up in Southern California and studied drums and percussion all the way through his graduation from UCLA. While in college, he performed every year in the UCLA marching band and varsity band, and was a snare line member of the national champion college drum line from a competitive circuit in 1988. Mark played in numerous rock, jazz and funk bands in the LA area. After moving to Northern California and starting a family, he later joined Maneck, a classic rock/r&b band in the San Francisco Bay Area. He is currently also the drummer for the rock and dance band, Private Label. He has been greatly influenced by other drumming greats such as Neil Peart, Jeff Porcaro, Carter Beauford, Steve Gadd and John Bonham.
Glory has a PA system that can accommodate moderate sized venues.
