Many of the band members are well-known in the Bay Area:

Tim Devine (tenor sax)

This multi-woodwind artist and educator has performed and recorded with jazz, blues and pop stars (most notably B.B. King, Ray Charles, Diana Krall, and Cedar Walton) and has inhabited the pits at various SF musical theater shows for several decades.

Erik is a busy freelance trumpet player, composer, arranger and educator based in the Bay Area who has toured with John Mayer and Illinois Jacquet. Current projects he is involved in include: Electric Squeezebox Orchestra, Erik Jekabson Sextet/Quintet/Quartet, Alma Matters, Fred Randolph Quintet, as well as numerous and sundry other performing ensembles and recording dates.

Cindy Browne Rosefield (bass)

Cindy has been an active freelance performer, recording artist and educator for over 35 years. Her jazz roots are "long and strong", having been mentored by Bill Evans' bassist Chuck Israels. Her musical interests are quite eclectic, including many underserved musical styles that form the 'melting pot' of the great American musical legacy. Current projects include folk and ethnic ensembles -- most notably a 20-year stint with Wake the Dead (a creative blending of Grateful Dead and Celtic music).

Jason Lewis (drums)

Jason is a freelance drummer and educator based in San Jose. He has an eclectic background, including classical and jazz. His associations and recordings are numerous, most notably with Boz Scaggs, the NLS trio (Paul Nagel, Jason Lewis, John Shifflett), and Kristen Strom.

Tom Reynolds (keyboards/composer/arranger)

Tom is a performer/arranger/composer who returned to the fold after a 25-year hiatus. He was active as a trumpeter/keyboardist in the Bay Area music scene through the 1980s, most notably with Mark Levine and Chuck Clark. His playing and writing are informed by both classical and jazz idioms, and his piano improvisation style is particularly influenced by classic mainstream post-bop horn players (Tom Harrell, Woody Shaw, Kenny Dorham, Joe Henderson).
