Otherwise Normal is a Los Angeles-based four-piece cover band formed in 1998. The group's primary focus is on Beatles and other 60s British Invasion bands, but we also play the likes of the Bowie, The Police and the Talking Heads. The members of the band include a computer programmer, a high-end audio rack designer, an internal medicine physician and a classical radio DJ.

Canoga Park Bowl — Re-Re-Redux November 16

The band was back at the intimate Royal Room at the Canoga Bowl for a fourth time on November 16. Wednesday nights at the "Bowl" are given over to musicians from the San Fernando Valley Symphony Orchestra, who perform anything from Chamber Music to, well, Otherwise Normal. We first played there in March and it was a blast. We were there again in June and August. Great crowds, fine nights. The November crowd was the biggest we've seen at the "Bowl." Very cool. We'll return in the New Year for sure.

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.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

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.
