Guitarist and Atlanta native, Spencer Kirkpatrick brings years of stage and studio experience to the group, and an all around electrifying vibe. From being an opening act in the 60's for "The Beatles" at Fulton County Stadium, Atlanta, GA with his band "Atlanta Vibrations," to recording on the Capricorn label in the seventies with the Southern group "Hydra," to remaining active on stage and in the studio today, Spencer is a force within himself and a highly respected musician. Some of the groups Spencer has toured with are ZZ Top, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Charlie Daniels Band, Rush and Trapeze.

"Emotional," and is released on Atlanta Music Group's "Alternative/Urban" label.
Bassist and vocalist Kerry Creasy has played a wide variety of music on the big stage with Albert King, Son Seals, Elvin Bishop, Dr. Hector & The Groove Injectors. Kerry says he likes it all, but the blues is his heart and soul. He plays 4, 5, and 6 string fretted and fretless bass, and upright bass. His professional equipment and impressive musical background sets the stage for a truly rocking live performance!
Justin Hawkins plays the second drum set, backing vocals & percussion. Justin is the youngest member of the band and provides a vital spark and edge to the overall energy and spontaneity of the band. His counter-polyrhythms played against Stevie's fuse together, creating a massive driving drum sound and feel describe by some as (locomotive). Justin has performed with Buddy Miles, Eddy Tigner, Little Brother, Sean Costello and the Bear Facts Band.
Rich Iannucci is on keys and Hammond B-3 organ rounding out this dynamic group. Rich is one of the most sought after organists in the Southeast. His stage and studio credits are too long to list. Rich doesn't emulate anyone, he is "Rich" on the Hammond. Rich is much the showman as he is the player. From the growl of his organ leslie cabinet to him standing on his organ, the crowd is certain to be moved musically and entertained visually. Rich one of a kind and an all time great.Have you performed in front of an audience?The band plays live concerts at various concert venues, festivals and colleges in the Southeastern and Northeastern United States.
