TIM SHAUGHNESSY – “BONO” Tim has been playing in both original and cover bands for many years. His incredible experience as a vocalist and entertainer is proven as he authenticates and captures the charisma of Bono. Tim is the dominant force who owns the stage and brings Bono to life during every performance. He counts on U2 and The Beatles as his major musical influences.
DAVID DELLAVALLE – “THE EDGE”Dave has been playing live since the age of 15, and is a multi-talented musician. Lead Guitar, Keys, Rhythm and backing vocals, Dave contributes more than his share to the sound envelope that is “Desire”. Dave’s tone says it all. His passionate drive for the multiple layers of sound and effects required to replicate the Edge, represents itself in the live show. When he is not playing guitar, Dave is a proud father of 2 boys.
JUSTIN FARAGHER – “ADAM CLAYTON”A true musicians’ musician. Justin has been performing at a hectic pace since the early age of 12. Justin went on to contribute to many bands throughout the years. Justin was very impressed with the authentic U2 sound that Dave and Gord captured making it an easy decision to join Desire! He has been a lifelong U2 fan as well!
GORD SOBOTA – “LARRY MULLEN JR.”Gord began playing the drums at the age of 9. He has been performing live since he was 15 years old, along-side friends Dave and Justin. He works in the computer industry and his musical influences span from U2 to Metallica. Multitasking the musical and business side of things for the band, Gord’s attention to detail and perseverance have paid off and is clearly audible in the “Desire” experience.

Just saw Desire for the first time at the Mentor Rocks concert series in Mentor, Ohio and I was amazed by the performance. This venue is a free concert series sponsored by the City of Mentor but I have to say that I would gladly pay to see this band again in the future. It has been so long since I have seen U2 live that it is hard to tell the difference from the real thing. Desire looks, moves, and sounds like the real deal and I would highly recommend them to any U2 fan out there. The vocals and music are amazing and the crowd interaction was great too ! I will not pass up a chance to see this band again if the opportunity arises. Joe Kirtland, Ohio
Just saw them last night at Taste of the Kingsway and they were amazing! The music, the singing and the performance were exceptional. They really connected with the crowd just like U2 would do. Betty Toronto
We just saw Desire for the first time in Kingston last weekend and we had such a fantastic time. U2 has been my favourite band since I was 15 and bought my first CD player, and Achtung Baby was the first CD in my collection. I was fortunate to see them live in 2001 for the Elevation Tour and it’s a night I will never forget. But let’s face it, it’s harder and harder for the average fan to have an opportunity to see them perform live. So I was thrilled at a chance to hear the music done live by Desire, and done so well! You’ve got a couple of new fans now, we will be watching your tour schedule and hope to catch you again soon! Lisa Belleville, Ontario
My wife is a HUGE U2 fan, so I took her and some friends of ours to Miami Valley Gaming to watch your show! She was hesitant, of course, as this is a band she has adored for her entire life. Well, she is already talking about coming back when you play MVG again next year! It was an experience that all of us enjoyed, even those of us who have been ‘forced’ to be U2 fans by being married to a fanatic for 30 years! Awesome show, excellent musicianship, funny at times, and exactly what my wife needed for her birthday week celebration! Thanks so much and we look forward to next year…or maybe we’ll see if you play anywhere near here before then! Bill Dayton Ohio
Dear Dave and Desire International U2 Tribute Band, “EVEN BETTER THAN THE REAL THING” Achtung 1991 I am pleased to write this recommendation to you and your band for making a milestone Birthday Party a huge success! It was a “BEAUTIFUL DAY” and my guest of honour, FAN590 Sportsnet #1 broadcaster Bob McCown’s wife, couldn’t be happier with the band’s show! This is the biggest testament to the band and show. Simply put it was “MAGNIFICENT”! The band’s talent was evident in the performance and the ability to connect with the group exceeded expectations, I’ve received numerous compliments from the guests since that evening “ALL BECAUSE OF YOU”. I would offer my recommendation of Desire international U2 Tribute Band without reservation. If you have any questions or require further information, please do not hesitate to contact me Lydia Event Coordinator,Toronto
Show at Miami Valley Gaming on Saturday 8/18/18 was awesome. Not typically a big tribute band fan, but you guys killed it. Vocals and music were spot on. Not to mention the interaction with the audience. I’ll definitely see you again. By the way I’ve been a U2 fan since the beginning saw them as the opening act for J Geils back in the day. Much Love!!!! Gary Lebanon, Ohio
Great show at the Aurora Ribfest on the weekend. I’m always impressed when a band can engage the audience in broad daylight at a ribfest of all things – and you guys did just that. Sound was awesome, band was awesome…I’ve seen U2 half a dozen times, and while you weren’t “even better than the real thing” (cuz no one is!), you really caught the spirit and put on a great show. I’m looking forward to seeing your full show somewhere in the GTA this winter… thanks again! Kent Aurora
Saw you guys at the Stage West Theatre shows in Calgary. Absolutely blew my mind and expectations out of the water! Feel free to come back to Alberta anytime! I’ve been spreading the word! Chris De Jong Calgary, Alberta
On Saturday, June 8th 2015 our headlining performers were Desire-International U2 Tribute. As a musician and production person, I can be awfully picky about what I consider a quality show. I want to take this opportunity to say that we had a lot of great music at this year’s Ribs and Brews, but Desire delivered the best performance we have ever had. Desire brings to the stage a unique combination of showmanship and style that is rooted in a detailed and concrete grasp of the musical intricacies behind U2. Desire is the total package. They have built a show upon a bedrock of musicianship and appreciation for a band that has global appeal and have shaped it into a performance that is as close to the real thing without being a fake knock off – that is an astounding achievement and I sat at the side of the stage in awe. One of the perks of being stage manager is that I can literally sit on the stage behind and amp and see that Larry, Clayton, The Edge and Bono are there in front of me. I have not seen a tribute band do that until now.Finally, I want to point out that I would not have written this positive review if these musicians were not a pleasure to deal with. They are consummate professionals. So if you are a producer or event planner, you need not worry; they will be on time, ready, and they will perform their asses off.If you want to know more please email me at [email protected] or call me 289-688-1405 and I would be glad to answer any questions about my positive Desire experienceSincerely,Jesse Parsons Professor at Durham College Ribs and Brews MC and Stage Manager Jesse Parsons Ribfest event coordinator,Bowmanville
Desire is an incredible band, they will exceed all of your expectations, will leave the audience wanting more and will be a pleasure to work with from booking the show to the end of their performance. There is no question whether you should book this show – it is a must have and a must see. We cannot wait to have them back. Shelley Ware Event coordinator,Aurora
Hey guys, I have to say that we made it out to Niagara Wine Festival last night from Toronto. We were all so impressed by how well you perform and capture U2. Performing to a crowd of 10000 must have been a huge rush! We loved your show and will definitely catch another one soon! Thanks for making our night fun! Tina Toronto
As the entertainment organizer for the Mississauga Waterfront Festival.I knew I had to bring something special to the stage, that would make people feel like they were attending a real live concert. When I saw these guys perform a year ago – I knew they were it! From the look, to the inflections, down to the music – it was like I was watching the real “U2” band. If I can describe “Desire” in one word it would be “Spectacular!” These guys were professional from beginning to end. As I looked into the crowd on Saturday night from back stage I saw people smiling and singing along! They truly were reliving a special time in their life. Don’t stop doing what you’re doing – you make a lot of people happy! Continued success! Mary Festival event coordinator,Mississauga
