About the awesomeness
Tina Sparkle is an original Rock/Pop/Indie Power Trio from the Peoria Area. Led by Marsha Satterfield (lead vocals/guitar/song writer) and backed up by the Cave Man/Moonesque (but not quite as awesome) drumming of brother and long time accomplice in rock, Atomic Satterfield and lead bass of Chris "Noodlebass" Anderson, Tina Sparkle takes influence from the vast history of rock music, including but not limited to: The Pretenders, Rainer Maria, Iggy and The Stooges, AC/DC, The Who, Cat Power, and Chuck Berry.

Tina Sparkle has been in the works since 1998 when Marsha Satterfield and her friend Ben started writing songs together. At the time they were a little "grunge" but when they both soon grew in music, everything got a little more melodic. They started playing with Marsha's brother aTomic on drums. When Ben eventually moved to Olympia for college, the band went through several transitional guitarists including Clint K, Davin Field, and Dave Moe until finally settling on Chris Anderson.NOW they are a monstrous 3-piece ready to make you weep at our next show.

Marsha's very personal lyrical style mixed with her classic rock guitar driven songs brings a familiar, yet fresh voice to the current state of popular music, especially with the bands drive to keep their shows and recordings as honest and raw as possible (ie: no Autotune and minimized ProTools trickery!). Everyone in the band has logged years of stage time, and on record, (a minimum of 12 releases between the three members) locally and across the US. Currently you can purchase the bands Debut Full Length All Around Champion Screw Up on Thinker Thought Records at local Peoria Co-Ops, at Shows, or on iTunes, EMusic, and other online distribution centers!
