About Us
Jack Love
Jack Love is a Northern California bass player who has played country, blues, jazz, R&B, rock, reggae, gospel, and jam music for years. He describes his musical tastes and influences as, “A fusion of all those genres, what I would call American roots music. I’m always trying to reproduce the tone I hear in my head: woody, warm, sexy, and funky. My job is to have a conversation with the rhythm section that supports and drives each song.
Stephen Norris
Stephen Norris has played drums across the US in bands from the mid-Atlantic to Seattle and San Francisco. His musical influences run a wide spectrum which has given him the versatility to play jazz as well as roots rock and blues. Stephen is the solid groove-keeper (unless he’s had too much coffee), partner in rhythmic crime with Jack Love on bass, and Stephen has yet to sing vocals into a mic.
