Back2Life brings top notch vocals, superb song selection, and professional, energetic performers with years of experience to your private affair or function. Each of our band members bring to the table years of experience playing all styles of music, from instrumental jazz and swing to “bring the house down” funk and R&B.

Founder Kurt Manderbach has over twenty years of experience as a lead singer and pro bassist. He has played in a nine piece R&B band, casino style top 40 band, done numerous pick up gigs as a singer or bassist, and spent the last twelve years in the Fuzzy Bunny Slippers playing in the best venues and entertaining large crowds. His most recent acoustic projects have a harmony-driven vocal sound that adds a new and exciting flair to his diversity as an entertainer.

Guitarist Mark Ludwig has worked off and on with Kurt since the late 80’s, and spent the last five with him in the Fuzzy Bunny Slippers. His easy going nature and enormous talent adds the musical foundation for the band. He has taught hundreds of students over the years and his ability to play classical guitar as well as jazz, rock, and blues makes him the perfect fit for any situation. He was a member of signed recording artists Solution A.D. and has toured with the band LIVE.

Vocalist Marci Clontz has been singing with Mark and Kurt for over two years in the Fuzzy Bunny Slippers. Her professionalism and energy on stage are an inspiration. She has a degree in music and has been singing and performing since the age of 10. Her heart felt vocals and passion for music are obvious when you see her perform. Back2Life is very fortunate to have a female voice of her quality in the mix.
