Hyde’s acoustic bass is the energetic cool pulse behind the group’s sound. His music experience runs deep, including decades of jazz performance and teaching at Alberta’s Mount Royal University.
Husband’s guitar holds the centre with a big warm sound and a fine balance of rhythmic and harmonic information. After years of experience in big bands and trad jazz, mostly in Victoria, Rick retired to the Comox Valley in 2008 and has found steady work in a variety of small jazz combos.
Graham’s vocals are direct and accessible. She swings, she plays the angles on rhythm and melody, and she never loses sight of a song’s heart.
