FlashMob! Bios: Collin | Joe | Laura | Jeff | Grant


Collin Hummel, Public Enemy No.1, gained notoriety throughout the Midwest as the energetic, charismatic front man for local favorite The Subsidies.

Taking his talents and followers with him to FlashMob!, Hummel has created a stage presence filled with passion, conviction, and other buzz-words such as “awesomeness” and “constipation-ism.” Not easily tracked down, yet highly visible, Collin enjoys nothing more than getting the audience to participate in the show – asking for any willing (preferably attractive young women) participants to join him in belting out a classic hit or pop favorite. YOU could be his next target (no, not you. You, over by the Sacks game)!

Collin’s alter ego “Surge Gerisson” may sell dirigible accessories (flags, antennae, various lubricants) during the daytime hours, but once the sun goes down, the Mob is secure and the show is set, his rock star personality, along with 33” waist pants, jumps into action!

How the magic is made:
Microphone (SURE Beta 58); Ear, nose, and throat; Professionally trained vocal techniques which mimic a Les Paul guitar, Wah pedal, bass guitar, and various percussion instruments. Awkward comedic dialogue with topics ranging from “kids these days,” “women in taupe undergarments,” and “getting to and from 3 rd base.”
