Drummer and outstanding vocalist Allen Diffie (Fathers and Sons, Corky Jones Band, String Theory) brings gobs of talent and experience (and a very infectious laugh) to the table.<br><br>

This core has united with Marie Grimsley, a Fayetteville area singer with unparalleled strength and range, to produce Spank, a band that is big on variety and big on FUN! Marie has been wowing the Sandhills area for over two decades (Joyner, Young, and Marie, Seal the Deal, Beautiful Dangerous) with stellar vocal performances on classic and current rock and soul hits, from Aretha to Zeppelin.<br><br>
