STRANGE HIGHWAY has been hitting the local scene since 1998. It was founded by Chad in attempts to once again appease his inner desire to be a Rock Star. Some personnel has changed since the band's inception, but as long as the will is there the band will persevere.
(Lead Vocals/Keys) Donna has been singing for as far back as she can remember. She recalls being 6 years old playing her Motown records, and with the help of a recording mic that came with her recorder she would pretend to be a performer. On opposite ends of the spectrum were the odd mix of Michael Jackson and Barbara Streisand as her earliest influences.
Donna has been doing the cover band scene since 1990 when she joined Queens based rock band SMOKED JOHNSON. In 1993 she became a member of a Country band called SUNDOWN where she felt she was able to indulge in a bit of Southern comfort. From Sundown she went on to play Summer County Fairs with another Country band IN THE SADDLE until it's breakup in 1995. After a short sabbatical she joined STRANGE HIGHWAY in 1998 and has been rocking steady ever since.
