| Band Members |
I’m a solo artist these days but I’ve played and worked with a variety of people through the years.
In the Allies, we were Shelly Wolfe on bass, ’One take’ Jake Smith on drums and Craig McGee on guitar ...and me playing guitar and singing. With Terry Hammer mixing and doing production work.
In Necropolis Of Love, we were Peter Vinella on guitar, keyboards, writing,production, Tim Hesla on bass and saxophone, William Zelinski on drums and Matt Wallace on production.
Subsubkultur has seen a number of fine musicians lend a hand; Kelly Chambers (of Faith Industry) on drums, Marty Kent (of the Explicit Players) on bass, Will Scarlet (formerly of Hot Tuna) on harmonica, Steve Cornell (of The Movie Stars, Red Meat) on pedal steel and Ben Melnick (of Ten Tall Men, Pounding Birds) keyboards and production.
