MACALAS
I love our new band MACALAS (ma-KAL-es), formed in late 2023. While our set list focuses on the music of the legendary progressive rock masters Emerson, Lake and Palmer, our musical reach has no defined boundaries. Besides performing some of our own original music, we also MACALAS-IZE other arena rock masters as King Crimson, Genesis, Moody Blues, Procol Harem, etc. Click here to see all the other great bands we cover.
You have got to come and check out MACALAS! As a fan recently told us it’s ”A show like no other”
MACALAS’ line up is:
Bruce MacPhearson (MAC) - Keyboards and madness
Bill Calabrese (CAL) - Bass guitar, Acoustic guitar, Lead vocals
Dave Las (LAS)- Drums, percussion and vocals

Capricorn
I have the blessing of holding down one of the drums seats in Capricorn - an authentic musical tribute to an American music legend - The Allman Brothers Band. We are rapidly building a very strong regional following of loyal fans! Capricorn has such great chemistry and, much like the original Allmans Brothers Band, ours is also a tight family band. It is a privilege and honor to play in Capricorn.
The amazing Capricorn line up is:
Bill Calabrese - Keyboards & Lead Vocals, Brett Calabrese- Guitar & Vocals, Dave Evon, Guitar & Slide guitar
John Adkins - Bass, Dave Copolla - Drums & Vocals. D. Las, Drums & Percussion

Capricorn LIVE!
The great Connecticut Transit Authority (2011-2021)
After 10 incredible years, our band played its final gig on December 4, 2021. We are blessed to have been recognized as being one of the finest and most authentic Chicago tribute bands. During our time together we developed an amazing fan base. It was their genuine love and support that made CTA such a special band. Please check out the video below of us performing at Daryl’s Hall’s Club.
We had the honor of playing at Daryl Hall’s (Hall & Oats) concert venue - Daryl’s House Club in Pawling, NY. Directly below is the full video from that show. The show was held, and live streamed, during COVID. So while there were only 50 people in attendance, we were told there were 10,000 viewers watching the live stream from all over the world. Skip around the video - I’m sure you’ll find a Chicago song you love. The music was produced live by the great Peter Moshay, Grammy winning Producer of Hall & Oats and so the mix and production - incredible!
CTA’s impeccable core four:
Bill Calabrese - Bass & Vocals,
Brett Calabrese - Guitar & Vocals,
Tom Barra - Keys & Vocals,
D. Las - Drums & Vocals
Our great horn section:
Evan Grey, Trombone & percussion
Tim Lewis, Sax, flute & percussion
Andre Foote, Trumpet & percussion
