Bio  Page  

     Shattered was formed in 1996 with the purpose of recreating the vast musical diversity that is The Rolling Stones. Capable of delivering Pop, Blues, Motown, Disco, Reggae, Country and especially good old Rock and Roll, we aim to please. Shattered has performed over 100 shows thru out the Northeastern United States.

    With the recent addition of Larry Leibowitz as Mick Jagger, Shattered is now able to combine what it always had, top notch musicianship, with an exciting charismatic "Mick Jagger" front man. Welcome to the next level in Rolling Stones Tribute Bands.         

Larry Leibowitz - Larry delivers a contagious energy combined with his uncanny Mick-like vocal phrasings. Many authentic costume changes are used thru out his performance. This provides a stirring visual of the different transformations Mick himself has experienced. He also plays harmonica and guitars on the songs in which Mick does the same. Larry first Stones  band in College was “The Cocroaches”.  Later he went on to front the  now disbanded Stones Tribute “It’s Only Rock & Roll”.  

Michael Rubino - Founding member of Shattered. Has studied the nuances and versatility of the guitar playing of Keith Richards. Michael plays all the correct open tunings as well as slide and acoustic guitars. His guitars and amps (as well as Eric’s) are the correct models as used by the Stones. Captures the distinct appearance of Keith. He has performed with Stones Tributes “Sticky Fingers” and “Hot Rocks”. Currently performs with the Tina Turner Tribute “Simply The Best”. 

Eric Senderoff - If Eric is the best, as many believe, at capturing the feel of Mick Taylor it is not due to blatant copying. Eric’s influences from a young age have been Freddie and Albert King, Chuck Berry and Earl Hooker. It is not a coincidence that these were the same influences of a young Mick Taylor. Eric has performed with the Stones Tributes “The Blushing Brides” and “Sticky Fingers”. Currently plays with “Rock Therapy” (Roots Music) and “The Dave Marshall Band” (Blues, Southern Rock etc.). Other influences include Roy Buchanan, Johnny Winter, Jimmy Vaughn, Jeff Beck and Grant Green. Accomplished slide player.

Mike Dancik - Plays accomplished piano and organ. Influenced by Nicky Hopkins, Chuck Leavell, Benmont Tench and Warren Zevon. Lays down appropriate choir, horns and synthesizer when needed to provide accurate renditions of songs. In his Early years Mike was classically trained. He now entertains with his brand of Honky Tonk piano. Currently plays in “Simply the Best”. 

Ben Poore - The groove master. Experienced touring bass player. Former member of successful original band “Sinclair”. Traveled United States as bass player for a reggae band. Performed with Stones Tribute “Sticky Fingers”.
