Most recently drummer Charles Wiley joined The Electric Vinyl family. Charles has been playing music for over 25 years, starting out playing with his father and brother as a child. Charles studied music theory at Yavapai College in Prescott, Arizona, and later studied with drummer Gil Sharone, who is known for his work with Marilyn Manson, Dillinger Escape Plan and Stolen Babies. Charles also studied with legendary big band drummer Ed Shaughnessy, probably best known for his years as the drummer for The Tonight Show Band on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. To Charles, the drumset is a musical instrument that he feels needs to be explored and tested further. “I’m not a drummer,” he will tell you, “I am a musician who plays the drums.”

In an era dominated by Tribute Bands playing the music of a single act, Electric Vinyl with their four distinctive lead vocalists and signature melodic four-part harmonies are an exciting alternative to any regional, national, or international concert event!  Complete with a lineup of experienced, world-class musicians, Electric Vinyl are revered by fans as THE ULTIMATE ROCK TRIBUTE!
