MEET THE BAND
TRACI KAYLOR
Lead Vocals & Percussion
​
While OFF DA CUFF is a 100% equally team-run band, Traci is our "fearless leader." A true "front woman," she not only sings lead but also gets the crowd going by encouraging participation - whether encouraging sing alongs, shout outs or dancing with the crowd - especially the line dances.
She handles our bookings, coordinates rehearsals (where she FEEDS the band!), works on marketing with original drummer Sam Maggio, and creates the set lists.​
​
Traci recently retired from teaching, but still is busy with her other business, TK Bartending and More.
​​Her favorite songs to perform are "Country Girl" by Luke Bryan, "Free" by The Zac Brown Band and "Chain of Fools" by Aretha Franklin... but she loves ALL genres of music.
MIKE RUIZ
Guitar & Vocals
​
Mike is the "master slayer" of the band. His extensive career gives him the knowledge to duplicate most classic guitar riffs. We like to call him our "Local Carlos Santana" as he specializes in our latin-flavored covers.​
​
Mike is a professional musician, also performing as a solo artist.
He is a founding member of OFF DA CUFF.​
​
​Some of Mike's favorite songs to perform are "Smooth" by Santana featuring Rob Thomas and "Sabor A Mi" by Santana. Mike enjoys letting it rip with all genres of music, though.

BRENT MENDOZA
Guitar & Vocals
Brent has been performing with OFF DA CUFF for quite some time and is an amazing guitar player. He has been playing music for over 40 years.
​
Some of his favorite songs are
"I Drink Alone" by George Thoroughgood and "The House Is A Rockin'" by Stevie Ray Vaughn, but he can play any style of music you throw at him.
GREG RANDLE
Bass Guitar & Vocals
Greg is a very talented bass player who also plays guitar and other instruments - but also has an incredible vocal range. He helps the band hit those high notes, and his energy is contagious. He is an experienced musician and has played music for many years.
​
One of Greg's favorite songs is "Long Train Runnin'" by The Doobie Brothers, but he can sing-and-play almost anything.
