FATF 2024: Simply In Time

Events
JULY 26: SIMPLY IN TIME

Simply In Time was formed in early 2022 by Robb Hughes, Eric Nollett, and Steve Boersma out of a ten-piece horn driven band they met in. The original purpose was to create and play their own instrumental versions of some popular music spanning genres from funk to rock to pop and dance for some small venues, open mics, and event background entertainment. When Jake Oakey was introduced to the band, he came with a catalog of original songs that he had written and performed in Colorado. Adding his vocals, guitar skills, and incredible ability to write music changed their goals overnight! Kendra DeVrou joined the band in early 2023 bringing amazing lead and backing vocal layers. From a four-song open mic debut at The Park Theater in July 2022, they have since become a sought-after band for West Michigan venues.

JULY 12: THE BAND CORDERO

Hailing from West Michigan with groovy bass lines, clever hooks and soaring harmonies, The Band CORDERO has come to play. The group came together in the spring of 2022 to combine their pop-rock sensibility with sassy but sincere songwriting. Runner-up of the Grand Rapids’ local battle of the bands, The Band CORDERO received high praise from Local Spins stating they, “Pulled out all the stops with a high energy and engaging set, ending with a standing ovation.” Their highly anticipated debut single release hot off the press, Falling For You, takes their magnetic synth-pop vibes into your listening space.
