Crosswire came about as a result of a tragic accident.
On August 10th, 2003, David Dobbert (son of Bruce and Cyndy Cross) was killed by a drunk driver
while riding his motorcycle. David was a talented bassist for the rock group Phineas Gage.
In David's honor, Crosswire was born and now every note we play is for him!

 


 

Bruce Cross

I'm a singer and the bassist for the band. I used to play guitar, violin,
and banjo in a band called Fools Gold. We played a lot of Outlaws, Eagles,
and Lynyrd Skynyrd. This is a new adventure for me and my family. We are all looking forward
to keeping David Dobbert's vision alive in our music. Its also a great opportunity to play with my wife,
son, and real close friends. Come and see us soon! Keep soaring with the eagles Dave.

 


Cyndy Cross

I have never played an instrument in my life!
What made me decide to pick up the bass at my age you might ask. Well,
my husband (Bruce) thought we should learn Dave's bass guitars in order to honor Dave
after his tragic accident on August 10th, 2003. Never in my life did I see myself playing
bass let alone being in a band, but I can picture Dave smiling down on me and saying
"way to go Mom!" This has been a challenge for me but I know Dave is helping me as well
as Bruce and Andrew. I think Dave's is pretty proud of me for doing this and I am playing
his '" baby" bass. Keep smiling down on us Dave. I hope you're as proud of us as we are of you.
You will live on forever in our hearts and memories. Love you always Dave. Love, Mom.

 

Andrew Cross

I've played drums since I was in 6th grade, and guitar since 7th. I've been in two bands
previous to this one (Natural Born Chaos & Derogatory), and can't wait to see just how far this
is going to go. As the lead guitarist I'm ready to kick ass and take names. Besides playing the
cover songs with this band, I've been working on some of my own material. Watch for
"Stalkers Prowl" (my future album) in stores in a couple of years.

 

 Dana Scheib

I am the newest member of Crosswire from Genoa City, Wisconsin
I have been playing guitar since 1986 when my wife made me buy a guitar at the age of 24!
I am a heavy metal fan and always on the listen for new music,
the louder and heavier the better. My motto is “If it’s too loud, you’re too old”
I was invited to play with Crosswire by my future Son-in-Law (09-10-11) Andrew and his Dad Bruce.
Looking forward to rocking out with the guys and bringing some music to a party near you!

 


Scott Fanello

Hello! Well, I grew up in Watertown, Wisconsin where I met my wonderful and
supportive wife, Alie. We have two awesome children that keep us busy most of the time.
My wife actually bought me my first drum kit back in April of 2003 and I've been
teaching myself ever since. Some of my biggest influences have been
Metallica, Godsmack, Chevelle and Nonpoint just to name a few. Aside from drumming
I also enjoy camping, watching movies, grilling out and enjoying time with family and friends.
I'm very thankful and fortunate to have the opportunity to be the drummer for Crosswire
and am looking forward to seeing what the future holds for us!
Time to kick the tires and light the fires!!!
