Michelle DeLorme (Miche’)
Vocals, Keyboards, Acoustic & Electric Guitars

Classically trained in Italian opera and piano, Michelle has been performing professionally too many years to mention. Some of her first gigs were singing in piano bars with her mother. These early gigs, age of 5, also included performing for her stuffed animals. This has  led to a long career in music. Her early 20's were spent touring and performing all types of music from R&B, Jazz, and Standards, to Top 40. In her 30's she left all that behind and became a resident rocker gigging steadily throughout Central Florida and the Tampa Bay area. Moving to Bradenton in 1997 to lead the creation of The Distractions a new era was begun. With her four octave range, diverse musical background and song writing abilities, she can sing almost anything and the band gives her a  wide range of material to pick from. In 2000 she co-wrote and released the original CD "Come & Get It". Oh, and the 40's....well we just are not going to talk about that!!

Johnny V
Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Mandolin & Vocals

Originally from Australia, Johnny ended up in Florida via New England. A lifelong passion for music and the guitar was formed at an early age when he experienced the music of The Beatles. His first lessons came from his Uncle Ernie (no relation to the one in the Who song, although he did fiddle about.) Playing in bands since the age of sixteen, he has pursued his love of guitar playing through a wide range of musical genres. This is the essence of the music of The Distractions. From blues to pop, and everything in between, The Distractions can, and will play it.
