As 2023 unfolds, The Coupe De' Villes are celebrating their 40th year of existence by performing all over the Western New York Region. The Coupe De' Villes, or as known more commonly by their fans as The Coupes, have showed no signs of slowing down. The truth is that The Coupe De' Villes continue to be one of the busiest bands based out of Rochester, NY.

Though The Coupe De' Villes have changed with the times, the commitment to deliver the best entertainment possible remains.The Coupe De' Villes head into their 4th decade of making music with original members guitarist Tommy Bianchi and vocalist Lex Byers leading the way. Bassist Jeff Morrison has been locking down the bottom for 2 decades, and drummer Julius Varrenti keeps the groove tight.

After 40 years some bands would consider winding down, on the contrary The Coupe De' Villes have kicked it up a notch by adding horns to the mix. With The Westside Horn Section featuring trumpet player Donny Allen, and saxophonists Paul "Junior" Spezio and Ken Foster blowing up the sound, The Coupes have emerged a 7 piece powerhouse that has the versatility to perform multiple styles of music, in almost any venue imaginable.

The Coupe De' Villes look forward to our next decade of entertaining the people of Western New York with our unique blend of Blues, Funk, and Classic Rock music. Don't let our age fool you, The Coupe De' Villes are only getting better with age.
