The Musicians
MEET THE BAND
Lead Vocals
Rob Semtek
Born into a heavily music influenced family, Rob knew at a very young age that music would eventually be his destiny. At age 12 he started playing guitar wanting to be a lead guitarist/shredder, until he discovered his vocal ability and passion for singing. He has since, and continues, to record original material/albums with some very well known, top level producers. Rob has also supported many national acts in his career with his original bands, including, Skid Row, LA Guns, George Lynch, Dream Theater, Saving Abel, just to name a few. He has also had the honor of collaborating his original material with the late music icon Chris Cornell. In Almost Creed, Rob replicates Scott Stapp like no other and takes you on a musical journey you will never forget.
Lead Guitar / Vocals
Chris Fury
After finishing an unforgettable experience on Jelly Roll's sold out Son of a Sinner Tour, especially the unreal Red Rocks Amphitheatre, Long Island guitarist and producer Chris Fury focus's back on his instrumental solo career. Since starting his career in 2008, Chris Fury has become a sought-after guitarist and producer in the hip hop world. His professional career began after successfully auditioning for gold-recording hip hop icon Keith Murray's live band. They continued to play explosive headlining shows and festivals, and with acts EPMD, Eric Sermon, Method Man, Redman, Pitbull, and Ludacris.
Drums
Rob Cardone
Rob, a native of Bellmore, New York, possesses a diverse skill set as a drummer, having contributed to numerous successful original, cover, and tribute bands throughout his career. With a musical journey spanning from tributes from Pat Benatar to the hard rock Beatles tribute, Helter Skelter, Rob currently lends his talents to acclaimed tribute acts such as 'The U2 Show' and 'The Journey Show.' Influenced by drumming icons such as Neil Peart, Mike Portnoy, Chad Smith, Gavin Harrison, Steve Smith, and of course Scott Phillips, Rob's dedication to his craft is evident.
Bass Guitar / Vocals
Scott Heller
Scott first got his start in music on violin in the third grade and then switched to the much 'cooler' instrument of bass guitar in 10th grade. He studied privately with renowned jazz bassist Mike Frost and then continued his musical studies first at the University Of Miami and then at Berklee College Of Music. Currently, in addition to Almost Creed, Scott performs with Facelift (the longest running Alice In Chains tribute band in the world), The U2 Show (U2 tribute) and The Journey Show (Journey tribute). In Almost Creed, Scott hones in on Brian Marshall's thunderous tones and fluid, low-end bass lines while driving the ultra-powered rhythm section to another level.
