Danny Seraphine and CTA The Chicago Experience at IF Caffe' del Mare - Ostia Roma, Italy
Danny Seraphine and CTA The Chicago Experience with Tony Grant.
California Transit Authority (CTA) is the powerhouse brainchild of legendary drummer and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee Danny Seraphine, co-founder of the iconic band Chicago. As the original backbone of Chicago’s rhythm section, Danny spent 23 years shaping the band’s signature sound—anchoring its rise to stardom and helping lead its celebrated comeback in the ’80s. After parting ways with Chicago in 1990, Danny returned to the spotlight in 2007 to answer a call from fans hungry for the explosive, horn-driven sound that once captivated Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix.
Seraphine formed CTA to revive the spirit of that era with a modern edge. Critics have hailed the result as “Chicago on steroids.”
CTA features an all-star lineup:
🎸 Marc Bonilla – Virtuoso guitarist whose dynamic style evokes the spirit of Terry Kath, blending fire, finesse, and fearless showmanship.
🎹 Ed Roth – World-class keyboardist with credits ranging from Annie Lennox, Chad Smith, and Keith Emerson to Glenn Hughes and Rob Halford. A seasoned solo artist, Roth brings depth and versatility to the CTA sound.
🎸 Travis Davis – Rock-solid bassist and lead vocalist, with a voice heard on network shows like Las Vegas and VH1, and stage collaborations with Slash, Alice Cooper, Steve Lukather, and Dream Theater’s Jordan Rudess.
🎤 Tony Grant - In 2018, Grammy-nominated Temptations singer Tony Grant joined the band, bringing unmatched power and energy. He recorded “You’re the Inspiration” with Chicago’s Peter Cetera and has performed with legends like Stevie Wonder, Celine Dion, James Brown, and Babyface.
