Johnny Race and Chris "The Doctor" Wider head the RACE ODYSSEY assault with their "Double Guitar Attack" and signature riff styles.

Joe Currie (known for his RottGutt and “Mr. Potato Head” fame) rips the audience with his "church organ against the asphalt" keyboards!

Buddy “The Funkmeister Bluesman” bassist defines the backbone of the RACE ODYSSEY sound and lays it all down with the "no holds barred" attitude.

Rick Frauenthal, drummer extraordinaire, assaults the senses and keeps the licks coming…on the 4-song "Limited Edition" CD. Rick gracefully moved on his adventures for the love of his children and future endeavors. His Amazing Talents will always be part of the Race Odyssey Family. Rock On Rick !!

Jenn Bialy adds the pièce de résistance with her unique vocals.

Johnny Heedan controls the drum throne with pure excitement, glitz and a "in your face powerhouse thunder" !!
