Rod
is an accomplished and passionate bass player with over 20 years experience. He
began playing at the age of 16 and after moving to Calgary to attend college,
he played with numerous "garage" bands before joining a local group
and gigged professionally throughout the Calgary entertainment scene for over
seven years. With influences from every genre of music, he brings a vast selection
of songs to the group. His unique playing style is a must-see; they don’t
call him the “human pogo stick” for nothing! |

Sharon is one of our lead vocalists.

Martine, another of our lead vocalists, was born and raised in Montréal,
Québec until her family moved to Calgary at the age of 11. Her musical
journey did not begin until her late teens when she began taking piano
lessons and singing in a variety of church music groups. Over the years,
especially since her move out west, her musical interests have broadened
from contemporary music to rock, country and blue grass. When not
singing, she is busy taking care of her three daughters and the other
lead singer, Ben.

Ben is our keyboard player and one of our lead singers. Ben’s music career started at age eight with 10 years of classical piano training and has continued to evolve ever since. He has also sung in countless choirs in his lifetime and continues to support his local church in both the choir and weekly music. Ben loves classic rock, blues, folk, some country and most music spanning the fifties to the present. Ben’s voice has been loosely compared to Gordon Downie of the Tragically Hip, but can make it sound just about as good (or bad) as any rock singer and will use it to enhance the beautiful sound of our female singers with back-up harmonies of all kinds. |

Shane, our guitarist, is pretty quiet at first - however after a few beers watch out! He has talent oozing out of every pore of his body, whether its playing acoustic, 12 - string or electric. He can also play keyboards and drums as well as sing. We havent figured out how to harness all this talent at one time, but when we do the rest of us can take the night off! |

Robin is our dynamite
drummer. |

Steve, our other
guitarist, grew up in London, England. He had his early introduction to show business
when he was given a ukulele and forced to perform onstage with his dad. Later
on in his youth he saw Clapton, Beck, Ron Wood and Hendrix in concert and realised
that he had what it took to succeed in the music business - if only he could ditch
the ukulele. Nowadays, Steve likes to include bits of Clapton, Steve Ray Vaughan
and Santana in his playing, usually resulting in a complete shambles, but his
motto "fake it 'till you make it" and "get them drunk first"
has ultimately helped him in his career. |
