Members bluedevil0204 Posted January 18, 2009 Members Share Posted January 18, 2009 Dude what the hell? Everytime that commercial comes on with the fake? band it makes me wonder. Are they an actual band? Singer plays jaguar it looks like and the bassist plays what looks like a P bass. I wonder if fender endorses them or something? Who gives a crap though. But I always wonder if they are a real band or something..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FlamingFrets Posted January 18, 2009 Members Share Posted January 18, 2009 In the commercials, it doesn't look like any of them are actually playing the instrument, so I would assume they're not. But who knows? I might be wrong. Edit: Just looked it up, and apparently the singer is Eric Violette, a French-Canadian actor and musician.

Members _pete_ Posted January 18, 2009 Members Share Posted January 18, 2009 Not sure of all of them but the lead guy plays. The vox are dubbed though. He's French. http://www.ericviolette.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members CanIBDom Posted January 18, 2009 Members Share Posted January 18, 2009 A coworker told me that she saw an interview with them on some tv show, and the singer/guitarist speaks with a French accent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Theylive Posted January 19, 2009 Members Share Posted January 19, 2009 Yeah, it's a voice over on all the signing. Here is a link to the main guy in the commercials youtube account http://www.youtube.com/user/ericzetiger He is obviously french Canadian, and although does play the guitar and sing, certainly is not singing in the creditreport commercials. I've loved those commercials ever since the first Pirate, seafood restaurant one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
