I come from NY where I've had a lot of success over the past 30 years-I've owned and operated DRESSER RECORDS (since 1986) I've toured in many bands.

Casey's the name. Any other label would be questionable. i play guitar in a band named Reaching Scarlet and am always looking for that next great gig. Sigh.

Biography

Well, I have been playing guitar for six years, I also play keyboard (I'm certainly more adept with a synthesizer than with a piano, though), I also dabble around with the bass guitar and with some conga drums and such. I am a huge fan of Dispatch and of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and I also really enjoy bands like Dave Matthews Band, Incubus, Led Zeppelin, and groups like that. I like to think that I'm pretty open-minded with music, the only real genre I can't handle is screaming metal (stuff like that, at least). I enjoy acoustic music as well as electric-based music, and I play both the acoustic and electric guitars. I think my voice sounds a lot like Chad Urmston from Dispatch, but I'm not sure how I feel about that. I try to keep my style unique to me and not like anyone else's. I really enjoy rap music as well, I listen to artists like Ludacris, Jay-Z, Outkast, etc. all the time. I would say my musical style is kind of a funky acoustic-rock, and I have a natural talent for fitting into whatever style the people I'm playing with happen to have. I love just playing music with people and jamming out, it's my favorite thing in the world.

Biography

I have been playing guitar for about 11 years and bass for about 3. I've been doing a bit of singing for the past year or so, as well.

Writing, playing, and recording are easily my favorite pastimes, and I have an album available at http://music.dorgetheband.com/. I'd love to get a full band together and start playing around town.

I was in a cover band starting in high school until about 2 years ago, so I have plenty of experience playing with a band and playing for an audience.

Major influences include Jimi Hendrix, John Coltrane, Pearl Jam, and many, many more.

Biography

Mid-life thin guy with soul and hair. Singing since 1st grade. Guitar player since high school. Appreciate all styles, prefer modern/classic rock/folk in the rock blues style. Lead vocal, rhythm guitar strengths, although I enjoy guitar solos, and I play a little bass too, when feeling low down and man-ly.

Professionals similar in style would be Neil Young, Eric Clapton, Sheryl Crow, Robert Cray ... fan of prog-classic Jethro Tull, Steely Dan, Wishbone Ash, Gentle Giant/early Kansas/Dixie Dreggs, plus the legends like Jimi, Zep, Floyd, Stevie, Mo-town, etc. Grew up on the Beatles/Stones/Who/Alice/pop AM and early FM. I appreciate anything new that is written, arranged and produced well while not being rehashed schlock !

I am not a seasoned veteran, but I have played out with various projects when time has permitted. Last group was a 5 year run as lead vocalist and guitar player for the Reg Hot Horn Dawgs, (a Blues Brothers style 12 piece horn band) which I named and was a founding member.

Presently playing with the house and watching too much TV and internet. I'd be interested in practicing once a week and playing 1-2 times a month. I have a PA which works Ok for small gigs and a simple light kit.

Biography

Todd's current project is called Twenty Aught Eight, which consists of posting a new song to his web site and his myspace page every week for a year between 1/14/08 and 1/12/09. During the project, the songs can be downloaded for free from Todd's site and they will also be available for purchase on CDs. Each collection will document a quarter of a year and will have 13 songs.

Prior to Twenty Aught Eight, he released 5 CDs independently, starting with Even My Shoes got the Blues in 1999. Reflections followed in 2001 and Here I Stand debuted in 2004. In 2007, Todd released two albums simultaneously.

My Blues consists of 20 selections from his first three albums that were rerecorded in order to better serve as an introduction to his earlier work. These songs were chosen based on consistent audience reaction and also include some of Todds favorites.

Live, Love, Learn, Sing! is made up of 14 brand new songs that are all deeply personal with diverse subject matter than includes life, death, love, suicide, persistence, self awareness, and fate. The lyrics find a way to provoke thought in the listener, often managing to do so with a dose of humor. The music successfully blends elements of blues, folk, rock, bluegrass, and country, forming what might best be called Americana.

2007 also saw Todds return to what he does best - playing live music, where it continues to be his goal to move people on an emotional level, drawing on his deep, resonant voice, tasteful guitar work, and a storytellers knack for interacting with and entertaining his audience.

Show me something, touch my soul. Bring a tear to my eye. Make it real; I wanna feel like Im really alive.

- Feel Alive, Todd Lorenz

Biography

Don't cancel that gig! Willing to sub for missing bass player... also play some rhythm guitar... I have been playing forever and have a very good ear... also sing harmony and backup vocals. Currently work with Joanne Powers, (improvisatory jazz/experimental music), and Kronic Jones (roots rock, blues and reggae), can also play mainstream jazz charts if you have them... soul or funk, sure... cut my teeth on Miles Davis' leg... fun for me is painting while listening to Arnold Schoenberg, Morton Feldman, Scriabin or Brecht... and yet, am always happy to find situation where I can sing mountain style, or acid rock country sounds... (like maybe Hot Tuna or The Byrds) love Hazel Dickens and Odetta... sing Hank Williams, John Prine, other traditional tunes... played with Southern Rock/blues band for years, Alman Brothers sound is natural to me... love the Holy Modal Rounders... gig with a Bluegrass band in Milwaukee on occasion. I came up in Chicago playing blues and jazz, learned acoustic bass playing with Mingus records and sitting in with others... studied jazz etc. with Russell Thorne... briefly schooled as classical bassist, and can read if necessary, also play flute but do not currently own one... spent years in choir and band as a child and teen, feel more comfortable on stage than off, generally speaking, and people say they find me easy to get along with (just don't cross me!) (heh heh) can collaborate like crazy and probably know at least half of your material already... and if not I will work on it cheerfully and accept your polite criticism without pouting... in other words I am a professional and if you need a hand occasionally or want to start something along the lines of anything that I mentioned, drop me a line. Yes, I have my own equipment. I am well over thirty but will not hold it against you if you are not. Particularly interested in playing with or singing with other women, although not just for amusement. I need to be working.

Biography

Check out my rough music on myspace or Facebook or Youtube: Barry Wayne Callen. I have just started a The Clownhorse Band currently with three female members: vocalist, keyboards, drums. I play guitar and sing and write the songs. We are currently looking for two female vocalists: one who also plays bass or cello, and one who plays lead guitar (preferably in the Spanish style). Get in on the ground floor.

Musicality, playfullness, and character are more important to us at this stage than training and experience, although we welcome those as well. You must be addiction/cigarette free. This band is open to all races, ages, abilities, gender preferences, and nationalities. We use many musical genres: folk, rock, country, theater, and dance music.

Several months after a stroke, I started waking up with entire songs in my head, now seven years later, I have recovered my health, and I have over 3 hours of original music. I believe that feeling is healing and the best music makes you feel something. I am out to start a band and record a CD before the end of the year.

Come and play with us for fun and see how it feels. Take a chance! Contact Barry Wayne Callen on Facebbook or at 508.347.8396 or at barry.callen@gmail.com.
