With a new percussionist and sax player they are stronger than ever and ready to make you shake what your mama gave ya!
Band Members:
Born in Seattle and raised in North Carolina Tyler Imbrey, the lead singer of the group, has crafted a style which fuses elements of blues, funk, grunge, rock, and reggae. As a songwriter, singer, and guitarist he has been developing his sound through performance and recordings since the ripe age of sixteen.
Lead guitarist Luke Gale, a southern man at heart, has a unique playing style which incorporates simultaneous lead and rhythm parts. Hendrix, Vaughan, Reggie Wooten and Freddie King (Texas bluesman), are among his musical influences. He plays a custom, handmade Brian Moore IM9 guitar through a home built, one-of-a-kind Madison 2X12 Freedom 35 Cabinet powered by a VOX adh 100 all tube head giving him an array of effects.
Born and raised in the Chicagoland area Mike Romanzow, the bass man, always knew he wanted to be in a band. His musical styles include funk and punk rock. With skills at both the guitar and bass Mike brings that much desired backbone to the group.
Drummer Tim Williams, born and raised in Chicago, attributes his initial introduction to the drums to his father, accomplished reggae drummer Tim Williams, Sr. Tim's major influences include the legendary Gene Krupa, DMB's Carter Beauford, Incubus' Jose Padilla, Quest Love of the Roots, and accomplished soloists Stanton Moore and John Blackwell.
Bryan Carroll has been playing sax as long as he can remember. Starting as a classical alto saxophonist, he quickly transitioned into big band jazz as an alto player and then began learning the rest of the woodwind family. He aims to mix the melodious genius of Miles Davis with the smooth tone of Joshua Redman and the attitude/style of the late Leroi Moore.
