Nate McKinley - beer drinking, truck driving, Sasquatch fighting, grizzly bear wrestling, bare knuckled brawling singer with real country soul, classic lumberjack good looks, and a Nashville voice.
Sean Meyers - Sean is a guitar player, bass man, and vocalist for many varied musical projects. Sean has played with Wind Up Records recording act Stefy, Geffen recording act The Nymphs, local cover bands Scary Monster and The Super Creeps, U2esday, Blindfate, The Popoffs, original pop/rock band Burn Up, original grunge/hardcore band Devotion, musical performance art troupe City of Lost Children and several other acts which have granted him great opportunities to make records and tour the world.
Scott Greene - Having been born to a man that didn't remove his Freddy Fender cassette from his truck tape deck for 11 years and a woman that was once asked not to sing in church, for it was distracting the choir, the attendants and possibly God; Scott wasn't destined for singing in a great band. But, when he picked up a guitar, he found his calling. As a teenager he lived, loved, and breathed rock-n-roll. His love for music earned him title of the worst prep-cook in the Pacific Northwest. Skipping ahead several years, Scott honed his songwriting and guitar skills playing with legendary Bellingham, Washington bands like Slick Watts, The DT's, and The Loyal Sinners. In addition to unleashing his Telecaster talents in Nashville Northwest, Scott also plays in the Scott Greene Band, the Jasmine Greene Band, Luke Warm and the Moderates, Boris Bud, and is a member of the Bellingham cover collective, Cover Your Tracks.
