Brian has been addicted to writing and performing music since he was a young teenager and has been a part of many bands: The Craving, Something Else, Phalanx, and many side projects. In each of these bands he learned a lot of things about music, writing, performing, and about himself in these different rolls. The summer of 2009 he decided it was time to write and play music in the exact setting he’s always dreamed of. Specifically that meant adding instruments like piano and cello. His group of players are dedicated musicians whose goal is to bring you music that will enrich your life in some way.
Marshall Jensen is well respected singer/songwriter and instrument virtuoso. He has brought a much needed piece to the group as a bassist and back up vocalist. He keeps the band smiling and adds a key element of style to the overall group. You can check out his solo project at www.myspace.com/marshalljensen
Stuart Anderton is a very solid new comer to the group. After Joe moved on, we held auditions for a couple weeks and Stu stood out. He nailed the audition with flying colors. His very supportive new wife found our ad online and paved the way for this great collaboration.


Additional Musicians:
Crissy Anderson performed on the Beat EP and at selective live performances. She is unbelievably talented and is a joy to work with. She is a singer/songwriter herself and is working on a project that will start performing soon.
Joe Irvin was the first part of Brian’s new group. When Brian formed the new group, his biggest goal was insuring a place for Joe. Brian said “Not only is Joe extremely talented but he brings the best out of me as a musician as well as in business and marketing. He is a good friend”. Every band needs a backbone, a solid place they can go to for stability and direction. For this group, that was Joe and his drums. He has unfortunately moved on and we miss him but wish him the best in his endeavors. He has done countless recording sessions with many artists and plays regularly in a few bands, namely Crashing at Dawn.
Ben Cook
and Brian knew each other in high school but reunited when they worked on a documentary together, produced by Ben and Brian did the soundtrack. Brian really enjoyed working with Ben as a cellist on the soundtrack as well as working with him creatively. Ben is the type of person that creates success with anything he puts his mind to and the band is ecstatic to have him share part of this project. He is, as Brian likes to call him, the “unique identifier”.
Steve Phillips produced the Beat EP and his unique writing style and talented fingers added a delightful flavor to the EP as the lead guitarist. He is one of Brian’s favorite people and has taught many of life’s important truths relating to music and beyond. He is a valued member of this musician list.

Desiree Turner
is a talented long time singer and pianist and when the opportunity presented itself to focus her talents toward performing she excitedly jumped at the chance. Her piano skills have brought the music to a whole new level in fullness and timbre. Her beautiful voice and good looks have brought a feminine aesthetic quality to the group and has made them more well-rounded.
Heather Atkinson saw the band play at the Benefit for the Children of Haiti concert and became friends with Brian. He learned of her talent on the strings and he knew he needed her as a part of this group. The rest is history and we're pumped to have her.
