Hit-N-Run is known in the music industry as a band who can do it all.
You know that you are in the midst of something special & rare with this band - just when you have them figured out -
they go & show you an even greater reason they are so much more than they
say they are - a band that knows what music is all about. They are a well versed, professional, tight knit-well oiled machine.
Here is a tiny bit about the Trio.
RUSTY (ON THE LEFT) We call him "Lownote" - is a BASS player
( Big Artistic Singing Salesman) that gets your attention
the second he starts to sing & set a groove down. Audiences are wowed & on their feet ! Rusty's bass playing not only
makes Hit-N-Run the great band it is - but has been the backbone of so many famous groups over the years like Roy Head, George
Strait, Willie Nelson, - you would not believe his list of greats he has worked with - we are in awe! Rusty, like Charlie,
is a consummate musician - he can find a harmony & create multi-part harmonies which he does to perfection - no matter
how many musicians are singing at the same time. He can harmonize with any guest artist that comes onstage with Hit-N-Run
& he is an amazing lead singer with a vocal authenticity of the original artist of any cover song. His winning smile &
quick wit add to the fun when he plays anything & everything Hit-N-Run decides to do. For years he & Charlie have
worked together & their harmonies are pure & impeccable - whatever note Charlie sings - Rusty is right there with
the complimentary vocal that makes folks stop what they are doing & give full attention to the band. Rusty's stage name
is a misnomer- he is as far from rusty as you can get ! Rusty helps make the trio stand out in all styles, but when it comes
to country-he is the king of style & can do it all !
CHARLIE (center photo) is the driving force onstage & puts on a show both musically
& visually ! He can be seen in an Elvis wig, glasses, scarf, & bling performing Elvis favorites for our fans or his
"soul man look" - you just never know what is next! His background from childhood to now has had him showcasing
his talent with many famous acts, but for over 25 years now heading up Hit-N-Run. As lead guitarist & lead vocalist, Charlie
has an amazing ability to play anything & everything & loves to play your requests so much so that he will instantaneously
turn to the band & within seconds bring back memories for you. He does so with an authentic sound & tremendous leads
that leaves our fans screaming for more. Through Charlie - HIT-N-RUN has the most diversified & longest song list of many
styles. Many bands & other musicians are in awe of him saying - he is the total package - a consummate entertainer &
musician - & moreso - a real team player. Charlie is a favorite with other groups to come work with them & bring his
style & versatility & voice to the stage they play on. His charisma, his smile, his genuine affection for his audiences
& his lead & back up vocals are part of what makes the band able to perform with a style that makes most folks think
Hit-N-Run is a highly polished band & a band that knows how to have fun, fun, fun & still be a class act. After all
- what can be more special? He is the GODFATHER.
LARRY (on the right)
is another driving force with HIT-N-RUN - laying down a backbeat that is sure to make you hit the dance floor. Not only is
"Shookie" a drumming machine, but he is the EMCEE for the group & duly appointed timekeeper. He keeps time on
the drums & on breaks he keeps the time so we get right back to doing what you love the most - singing & playing.!
When you hear Larry play & see his attentive eye for the audience, you know you're watching a man who loves what he does.
He puts all of himself into every song, keeping a watchful eye on Charlie & Rusty - knowing at any second with a flick
of the wrist or a nod of the head - a medley will be created to keep the dance floor packed. Larry's backgound is diverse
& along with Rusty & Charlie has worked with many famous groups. Hard earned experience since he was a kid makes him
the drummer with just the right beat for Hit-N-Run . Recently, he has taken his
emcee voice to a new level - he is now our harmonizing drummer ! He has the biggest smile & never is sure just what the
band is going to be playing next - it might not even be something they played before - but you would not know it. Larry seems
to know it all & if he doesn't - he has great team players with Charlie & Rusty helping each other achieve what can
only be described as amazing, fantastic, awesome and unbelievable. Hit-N-Run is a very tight trio & when we have the big
band - an incredibly tight big band. To us he is the Drummer extraordinare - aka "Shookie". Don't miss Shookie
doing Wipeout - as he says : there may be snow on the roof - but there's a fire in the oven and this guy sure can light a
fire ! Hit-N-Run is HOT, HOT, HOT !
