Band Biographies

The Boondoggles are a Northern Virginia based cover band of experienced musicians who enjoy playing a catalog that spans the 1960's, 1970's, 1980's and 1990's.  We are a family-friendly band that plays primarily classic rock  to keep crowds of all ages engaged and having fun.  We make it a point to cover the standards people want to hear, but also cover those songs that you may not think  of first but will remember well.  The Boondoggles are  a five piece band whose members are Jade, (Lead Vocals), David (Guitar, Vocals), Gabriel (Guitar), Cliff (Bass, Vocals), Rob (Drums) and Denise (Sound).

Jade has been singing since she was in 1st grade. Outside of singing at her church with the worship team, this is her first band. She can’t strum a guitar or tickle the ivories very well, but she loves singing all the classic rock & roll that she listened to with her dad. 

David is a guitarist for Mixed Greens, playing both rhythm and lead guitar and contributing occasional backup vocals. Outside of the band, he plays acoustic guitar regularly for his church, where he was scouted by one of the founding members. His musical influences range from 90s/2000s alternative rock to heavy metal and classic rock and roll.

Gabriel is the newest member of Mixed Greens, having joined the band in late 2024. He has played electric guitar for several bands in the DMV over the years, and now brings his skill and passion for classic rock riffs and guitar solos to the Mixed Green family. He loves all things hard rock, especially from the 60s, 70s, and 80s.

Cliff is a founding member of Mixed Greens who plays bass, sings vocals, and occasionally rocks the harmonica. Cliff has been performing for crowds since 2019 and his musical influences range from 70s rock, 80s new wave to 90s alternative.

Rob is the newest member of (insert band name) joining in late 2025. He's played drums for several bands since he moved to the DMV area in 2014. Prior to that he played drums for school marching band, jazz bands and jazz ensembles, and college mass services in his hometown Syracuse, NY. His influences range from jazz and big bands from the '40's through the 60's to rock, metal, alternative, and punk bands from the '60's through the 2000's.
