The members of the 502 band are no strangers to the Southern California live music scene. They have played the local club and casino circuit non-stop from 2004 to 2007. With over 90 gigs a year, this high-energy trio was part of the 5-piece Stingers band line-up. They decided to venture out as a trio to explore different venues and new musical material that did not fit the mold of a 5-piece band.

Jerry and Jimmy, who were veterans of the New York club scene, played in a successful trio that pushed the limits of a live music. Jerry explains "We can keep the crowd going until the end of the show, with a fully mic-ed drum kit, 18" sub woofers, a five-string bass, an electric guitar, and strong vocal harmonies our 8000 watt live sound is in a class that few bands can touch."

The members of 502 have incredible music backgrounds that give the band the ability to switch musical genres instantly; 502 takes on variety of material…modern rock, classic rock, alternative, dance, and metal. All songs are all well portrayed and are uniquely distinct from other southern California cover bands.

James Hilzman (Bass & Vocals) has been playing piano, guitar, and bass at a very early age. He has performed in many different venues with such artists such as Tony Harnel (from TNT), Grand Funk Railroad, Zebra, Steve Morse, and others. With a four-octave range and unique playing style, he captures the listener's attention !

Jerry Bon Anno (Guitar & Vocals) has been involved in music production since his early teens. In the early 90's, he co-owned the studio Northport Rock City and produced live demos for aspiring Manhattan (New York) talent.

Rodger Moore - (Drums) is known as "Side Sho Rog" for his crazy stage antics…including stick spinning, tossing, and double bass pounding. Rodger has been playing in Southern California cover bands since his the 1980's.
