Daniel Be is a singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, who has played with many
projects on the Western Slope of Colorado. With a love for original and heartfelt music,
he lends his unique style and approach to the music at hand, drawing from a
appreciation of many styles and traditions.

Tony Peters, we call him the professor, When he is not teaching, he is educating himself
on the free world and picking up yet another instrument to learn and play at festivals!

Randal Utterback has played and recorded with so many people we don't even ask. From outlaw Telecaster guitar to Gypsy violin, mandolin and dobro. When he is not trying to smash his fingers building houses, he is turning down nationally known touring music stars so he can stay at home and play with us and his family"
Greg Cooperman, the songwriter for most of the musical tinkering, has previously played with Sashay, Bobby Mason and a guest with many national artists. When not herding elephants, you can find him on the park bench
writing songs and playing the harmonica and accordion.
