​

​

Ann has been singing and involved with music all of her life, performing in various realms and settings including musical theater, choral music, jazz, writing/arranging, and recently took part in an independent musical drama film. She was classically trained in voice, and holds both a Bachelor's and Master's Degree in K-12 vocal/choral/general music education and vocal performance. She has been teaching music in public schools for the past 28 years. Ann enjoys many genres of music, but has a passion for soulful blues, jazz, folk, and roots music. She served as the vocal music director for the STC production of Mary Poppins this past fall.

​

Jeff is an accomplished musician, playing guitar, bass, percussion, and arranging throughout his life. Jeff can play just about any song you ask, right out of his head! He is also an experienced, and well known brewmaster, creating craft beer many years before it became trendy around here! You can find him these day at Sheboygan's own, Torke Coffee. He enjoys blues, classic rock, 80's rock, and pop. Jeff also coaches football and basketball for his son's teams during the fall/winter months. Ann & Jeff are brother in-law and sister in-law, and have been performing in other projects together for over a decade.

​

Adam has been a percussionist throughout his life, taking up double bass during his adult years. He played bass with the former group, This Big Life, and percussion with Hot Jupiter. Adam played bass with the UWGB Sheboygan/Lakeland Chamber Orchestra, and has had his hands in many local music projects over the years. Adam is a full time chemist, as well as helping his wife with her Sheboygan uptown business, Green Bicycle Co. They also raise chickens! Little fun fact: Adam's dad played percussion in the local band, The Eldorado's, with Ann & Jeff's father in-law in the 1960's! 

​

Paul is a native of Two Rivers, WI, and graduated from UWGB with a degree in Music Performance. He then decided he liked to eat, so he went back to college for IT. He's played with some big names, orchestras, and broadway tours throughout the years. His passion for percussion and, lucky for us, his sudden availabiliy have aligned to allow him to step up and become our new drummer and percussionist. In his spare time he likes traveling, staying active, and doting on his 2 cats, wife, and grandson. Probably in that order. He now lives in Glenbeulah, where he works in IT, of course, and bangs on his drums over lunch.
