Band Bio
There & Back Again is a high energy dance rock band with influences that span the entire history of rock music. Composed of John Woitko on lead vocals, Mike Manganelli on bass, Jeff Bonomo on drums, Pat Hoodie Manganelli on keyboards and Joe Somerdak on lead guitar, There & Back Again boasts a set list so diverse some say it's like putting your iPOD on shuffle. The band's show breaks down musical boundaries and allows the crowd to enjoy an eclectic mix of music that they love. Although the music may be varied, what holds it all together is the beat. It is all highly danceable, extremely recognizable popular music. The band's live show contains something for everyone including Classic Rock, 80s Hits, 70s Disco, Country, Modern Rock and everything in between. If you can dance to it, There & Back Again probably plays it. Since the band's inception in 2002, There & Back Again has performed in numerous nightclubs throughout northeastern Pennsylvania and volunteered for various charity events and fundraisers. These events include The Annual American Cancer Society Telethon, several Relay for Life events, Serento Gardens Seasons Change, and The Hurricane Katrina Relief Telethon. In January 2006 the band released their first album of original material titled Time Cures Everything. A video for the title track was produced and the band appeared on local TV shows such as Your Life, Community Awareness, The L.A. Tarone Show and WYLN News. The band has been featured in several Standard-Speaker newspaper articles including a front-page story.

Tarone, including an honorable mention in his top albums of 2006 list, appeared in the monthly magazine Panorama and Alan Stout's column "Music On The Menu" in The Weekender Magazine.
