80 PROOF on Fox Rox

80 PROOF plays Fox Rox - local Fox 26 station. The band had originally been told we were going to do two songs - but they didn't let us do a second song. We had planned on doing 'Workin' for the Weekend' which features Jason on lead vocals. When they have us back in the fall - we'll do songs that feature Jason on vocals.

Houston Press Mention

What the Houston Press says about 80 Proof:

80 Proof (5 p.m.)
Nominated in: Best Cover Band

You never know what happens when you get on Craigslist. You might hook up for one of those infamous "casual encounters," or you might wind up in an '80s cover band that owns the Lounge on Montrose Saturday night, and the rest of the week can be found anywhere from Pearland to Katy. At least as far as we know, that's what happened to these five guys and one girl when they came together last year, and have been growing their song list ever since. Could this be the year Molly & the Ringwalds finally goes down? — C.G.

New Singer

80 Proof has a new singer - Sally from Firefly.
Her Bio:
Sally Vee
Lead and backup vocals and percussion

I pride myself on capturing the audience's attention with an incredibly energetic stage presence that is the product of my 12 years as a performing vocalist. The fusion of my rhythmic body movement and unique vocal style is what sets me apart from the rest.

From the first note you will feel the power of what can only be described as 80s Pop meets Modern Rock -- cute yet edgy, raspy yet passionate. A prominent influence of the 80s radiates throughout my performance both in clothing style and attitude.

And now as the newest member of 80 Proof the lineup is complete for the hottest 80's cover band in Houston. So step up because it's time to rock!
