Our Tales

 Greg's earliest memories are of standing in front of a mirror, standing on a coffee table, singing Carpenters into a hairbrush. He went on to study voice and composition in college. Although he plays many instruments - including flugelhorn, keyboard and bass - he's taking lead vocals for us.

Kevin, champion of all things stringed, and who studied classical lute in college,  is playing bass for us. This is despite the fact that, as an avid collector and builder of instruments, he currently owns even more guitars than basses!

Scott, who picked up guitar in college during the hair band era, has been playing for 35 years.  A rocker at heart, he's influenced by Van Halan, Journey, Rush, and many others in all styles of music. When not rocking out, he enjoys dabbling in old traditional jazz, blues, and country. For several years he made a successful full-time living teacher guitar, bass, and music theory, and patented and published his own method for guitar players.

Nathan began playing drum set in middle school as part of pit orchestras, competitive drumlines, jazz bands, and more. This experience helped prepare him to become a highly skilled, cerebral drummer that has graced numerous bands in the last decade.

Jared, who got his start signing vocal choral in high school as a first tenor, has sung in choirs in various locations all the United States and Europe.  He brings us his own special brand of quirky lead vocals, awesome background vocals, and utility infielder help with some keys, some percussion, and a bit of trombone.

Megan can't resist learning a new instrument, and dabbles in a variety of brass, woodwind, and percussion. She says that what she really plays for this band is her computer - using multiple Midi controllers, including keyboard and an electronic wind instrument. Oh, yeah - harmonica!
