Blue Lion Project

The Blue Lion Project is a local Orange County band with Rebecca Vertson on vocals, Art “Mr. GK” Partida on guitar, Chad Cooper on bass, and Jon Krueger on Drums. The Ultimate Party Rock Band, Blue Lion Project’s music style is edgy alternative-rock. A diverse set list includes numerous original songs as well as clever covers from Van Halen to No Doubt to The Beatles. With Rebecca on vocals, the BLP has an original vocal sound reminiscent of Gwen Stefani with a harder edge. Art’s immense guitar talent is on display and his solos have been called “an exhilarating rollercoaster ride” by UCI’s “New University” staff writer Emilie Doolittle. On bass, Chad lays down the rhythmic foundation for the songs. Jon’s enthusiasm and expertise on the drums keeps “the audience alert with titillating rhythmic changes”, as noted by Emilie Doolittle.
