Welcome

Otherwise Normal is a Los Angeles-based four-piece cover band formed in 1998. The group's primary focus is on Beatles and other British Invasion bands, but we also play the likes of the Bowie & The Police all the way up to Maroon Five & Jet. The members of the band include a computer programmer, a high-end audio rack designer, an internal medicine physician and a classical radio DJ.

 

"You Don't Know Lucky You Are, Boy — Back in the YMCA." The band returned to the Santa Monica Family YMCA on Saturday April 17. Our two hour gig was part of the YMCA's Healthy Kids Day and Community Block Party. (Video Coming)

Check out this YouTube video to see a rooftop performance at the Santa Monica Family YMCA in July of 2009. We play the second half of the Abbey Road medley, right up to The End. Sure that's ambitious for a four-piece band — live, no less — but that's just how we roll.

 

 

 

If you've got 2 minutes, here are 22 songs. See if you can you name them all.

Otherwise Normal Rocks Marina Del Rey Again

We've played a number of times at Fisherman's Village in Marina Del Rey. We serve up our usual covers of Beatles, etc. and give out a slew of classical CDs to lucky attendees during random trivia quizes.
