Copperview - $5 / 8:30 pm
Fri. December 28

Saint Louis is city with a countless number of 20-somethings who share one dream - to make it in the land of rock and roll stardom. For every band that sinks, there's two more waiting in the wings. It's relatively simple to put four or five people together in a room, give them varying instruments and tell them to give it all they've got.
More than likely, they'll produce musical sounds with the smoothness of chunky peanut butter. But if you take five seasoned musicians with raw talent and a passion for rock, throw them in a blender with some blues and a lot of alcohol, you'll pour out a tall frosty glass of a band called Copperview. They take everything plus the kitchen sink, and make it sound like something amazing.

Each band mate of Copperview is a former member of a touring band from Missouri. Toby Picker and Frank Pettis (guitars) hail from Six by Silver, Jeremy Patterson (drums) and David Kopp (bass) were previously the rhythm section of gunderson, and Samuel Baker (vocals) was the front man of Morning After. Combined, the members of Copperview have spent more than twenty years on stage - and it shows.
