Formed by two longtime friends in 2017, Jake Bodnar and James Luciak, The Other Side is a premier Doors tribute band budding in Cave Creek, Arizona. Both have been avid musicians in the Phoenix music scene, and both musicians are classically trained pianists, beginning since childhood. In a familiar manner in which The Doors formed back in the 60’s, James (the front man of the group like Jim Morrison) and Jake (the keys player of the group like Ray Manzarek) came together to match musical talents and dreamt up a vision to create a Doors tribute band.
As they play and work on the music with immense passion, talent, and accuracy, you will immediately be taken back in time and will experience what it would have felt and sounded like to attend a live performance of The Doors. The Other Side has performed as the headliner at BLK Live in Scottsdale, Harolds and Janeys in Cave Creek, the Harley Davidson of Scottsdale, and numerous other venues in the Phoenix area.
Attention to detail is one of their many strong points, as they are fully equipped with vintage instruments and gear of the exact type that The Doors used themselves. James croons with the EV Model 676 microphone like Morrison used. Like Ray Manzarek, Jake brings the soul with all vintage VOX Continental Organ, Fender Rhodes Piano Bass, and Fender Rhodes Piano. Ryan emulates Krieger with haunting tremolo guitar parts with the Gibson SG guitar, and Morgan beats life into the drums with his kit that was adorned with the aesthetic finish that Densmore had on his kit. With all the right pieces finally put together, you can’t help but feel the authentic vibe of The Doors as The Other Side creates an unforgettable experience with sight and accurate sound.
Don’t miss an opportunity to experience the music and talent of this band.
