Mark’s love for the blues started as a child being mesmerized by his grandfather’s boogie woogie piano playing

He spent hours listening to Grandpa’s record collection that included early Elvis, Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee, Jerry Lee Lewis, Chuck Berry as well as many other now classic blues, boogie, ragtime, rock and country records.

Originally a jazz pianist, Joe, over the course of his career has expanded his repertoire to include R&B, blues, funk, and rock ‘n’ roll.

Over the years Joe has become a much in demand keyboard player for live and session work.

Jon was inspired to play after hearing the Fresh Cream album and after a few weeks had learned all the harmonica parts note for note. Then, after hearing the Paul Butterfield Blues Band he was  committed to mastering the harp.

​

He enjoys expanding his horizons by contributing solos and ensemble color to his various projects and has been involved in countless music scenarios for decades.

Singing is something Michelle has always loved all her life but  she  started her career in the entertainment industry as an actress notably as of the the lead characters in the first now cult classic Subspecies. 

After a movie audition that had required her to sing (and  being called back for 5 screen tests) she realized singing was something she was good at and needed to pursue on a professional level.

Growing up in a family of musicians helped Michael develop a feel for music at a young age and he started playing drums when he was 9 years old.

"There was always a guitar strumming or music playing over the radio growing up in Central Illinois.”
