Create a Myspace LED Scroller BEA BAHR (LEAD VOCALS). Last but not least Bea is the southern soulful blues diva of the band. Her voice is so soulful it will give you goose bumps. Bea has many years of singing at wedding, funeral and other functions, but this is her first blues project. Bea's voice reminds you of Betty Wright, Aretha Franklin and Etta James. Bea is ready to take the local blues scene by storm. What out for Bea in 2007.
Create a Myspace LED Scroller MICHAEL GALVAN (LEAD GUITAR) Welcome to exploring my passion. I enjoy composing, writing lyrics, and I am a performance artist. My earliest beginnings were in true jazz playing. It was very demanding at times. I was introduced to many local musicians, including Motown session players who went on to become nationally known. My genres include Blues, Jazz, Classic Rock and Country. My influences are Grant Green, Wes Montgomery, Eddie Harris (with his awesome lines), George Benson, Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, and Jeff Beck.
Create a Myspace LED Scroller PAUL TRAVIS (DRUMS)My influences are Steve Ferrone (Eric Clapton & Another Average White Band), Teddy Campbell (American Idol), Dennis Chambers (P-Funk) and Quest Love (Roots), Steve Gadd, Tim Roster Jr., Eric Moore, Thomas McGee, Aaron Spears (Usher), Neil Peart (Rush), Yonrico Scott (David Trucks), Poogie Bell (Marcus Miller), John Blackwell(Prince & Justin Timberlake), Chad Smith (Chili Peppers), Nisan Stewart (Missy Elliot & Tweet) and any body else who can bring the funk.I define my playing style as (Power, Control, Timing, Groove and Tight Pocket). I started playing at the age of 11 while in Grade School. At this young age I learned the fundamentals of the drumming (rudiments, timing, reading, counting, single and double stock roles. I then took an interest in Football so I gave up drumming for about 16 years. I went to a gospel concert about 2 years ago, with Rance Allen, Soul Seekers, Karen Clarke Sheard, Kiki Sheard, and Marvin Sapp. After listing to several outstanding drummers, the fire was set and I went out and purchased an entry level kit. Been on the local sceen for about 18 months playing with several different band ranging from Blues, Soul, Funk and Rock.Watch Out Detroit!!!!!!!!SCROLLER
Create a Myspace LED ScrollerMICHELE HOBBS (BASS) I'm a bassist/guitarist/producer type trying to ramp up a few music projects including my originals (instrumental bass features as well as some upcoming R&B/Funk/Soul) and some recording projects for friends. I'm still trying to get this 6-string bass thing down, but it will come along. Check out my pics for my basses. I'll do a slide show soon...I promise! Also, check out the video below for my son Cedric, a budding musician in his own right ;-)
