About
Blood on the Tracks
Chicago's
best (and only) Bob Dylan Tribute Band
|
Blood on the Tracks Band
The Blood on the Tracks band was an project started in 2007 by Ron Cohler when he
realized that he not only loved the music of Bob Dylan, but people told him he could sing just like
Bob. He soon enlisted Mark Mickey on bass. Mark is a life long Dylan fan and adds a
wealth of Dylan knowledge. Jim Cone was playing with Mark at the time and so was enlisted in
the project. After a few notable guitarists helped with a few gigs, George Kolmar joined to
form the band that is now Blood on the Tracks, the finest Rockin' Bob Dylan tribute band in
Chicago. We thank Craig Mickey (guitars), Brian Mickey (drums, percussion, and color), Ray
Kirschner (keyboards), Eli Orfanos (guitars), and Chris West (guitars) for all their help and
inputs along the way. Thanks also to Ann the Fan and our families and friends for their
support.

Ron Cohler - Vocals, Guitars, and harmonica
Ron began playing guitar just about the time Blood on the Tracks was released and
quickly discovered he not only loved these songs, but could play and sing them with a noticeable
resemblance to Dylan himself. Over the years, few people ever heard him until recently when the
Blood on the Tracks band became a reality. Other favorites include Eric
Clapton, Peter Gabriel, Adrian Belew, and The
Counting Crows.
