Details:
THE RENEGADES: Paul Mutzabaugh (keyboards), Matt Ross (guitars), Frank Alongi (drums), and Jon Wegge (basses) -- are all very active in the Chicago music scene. They have all performed and recorded in many genres including: jazz, pop, country, blues/rock, gospel, etc. This wide range of proficiency allows for The Renegades to tackle their fairly complicated and musically demanding repetoire of original music. Formerly a more "straight ahead" jazz group, The Renegades' 2004 release, "Doppler Olympics", is the first record that represents their current progressive fusion sound.

The Renegades owe a debt of gratitude to Alex Hall - friend of the bandmembers, great drummer, and engineer for "Doppler Olympics". Also, a special thanks to Kick the Cat -- another Chicago fusion band who have been a huge influence on The Renegades' style in the last couple of years.
