Band Members

Eric Oehler: Vocals, Synths, Violins, Naive Guitar, Bass, Duduk, Dumbek, Çümbüs, Tef, Dholak

A computer-geek trained as a classical violinist, Eric has always been somewhat of a musical dilletante. Having played in orchestras, chamber groups, folk bands, baroque trios, jazz combos and rock bands, he maintains a fairly obsessive pursuit of new styles of music. He occasionally tries to learn new instruments just for the hell of it.

He currently has sideburns.

Dr. Eric Goedken: Lyrics, Videography, Production, Additional vocals

A highly-published biochemist, Eric Goedken has a poet's soul, an artist's eye, and an unerring ear for a hook (these are all his, and are not part of any sort of gruesome frankensteinian experiment). Contributing elegant lyrics, beautiful videos, production note and suggestions, and the occasional spoken word track, he is an indespensible contributor to Null Device.

He does not have sideburns.

Chuck McKenzie: bass - Former low-end man for glam-rock acts and bluegrass bands, Chuck McKenzie brings his deep tones to Null Device. He also brings a deep knowledge of Dungeons and Dragons.

He has red hair.

Elizabeth Scheef: Dumbek, dholak, keys - also recognizable as the keyboardist for synthpop mates Stochastic Theory, Elizabeth also plays various bits of ethnic percussion, is a great driver on long road-trips, and probably likes RenFest-ish stuff a bit more than is healthy.

She has long hair.

Jill Sheridan: Vocals, keys - A frequent collaborator turned band member, Jill brings her golden voice to the band. AND she can belch like a trucker.

She also has long hair.
