Eddie Van Halen made Brian pick up the guitar at an early age. Stevie Ray Vaughan made him pick it back up later with a vengeance. Discovering he was Blues-Infused from the beginning, he's realized his passion and it shows in every note.
Brian's twin brother Erik is an inventive and versatile keyboardist, excellent singer, composer, recording engineer, and all around mega talent. Come witness the twins in action!
Charlie "The Clock" brings high energy and nuanced rhythms to every drumming performance, effortlessly picking up any song you throw at him. He's been there, done that and is ready for more.
A true veteran of the instrument, John's sax playing adds depth and dynamics to the The Deep Blue Crew's sound. He trades solos with the Molstad brothers and fits into the rhythm with ease. John is a must-see!
