Bradley Birchfield joined the junior choir at the Mountainburg Presbyterian Church in 1978, because he was too young for the cub scouts where brother Jody enjoyed campouts, games, and pocketknives. Brad thought that the church choir went on campouts too, so he joined. Little did he know then, music would continue to shape the direction of his life. In the 5th grade, he joined the band at school and played saxophone. In fact, he even played with David Renko of 'The Cate Brothers' band fame. Needless to say, Mr. Renko took that 'practice every night' thing more seriously than Brad did. After high school, Brad sang in Choir at college, then in 1993, with the contents of his change drawer atop his dresser, Brad bought his first bass at Rockabilly Music in Van Buren, Arkansas. The rest, as they say, is history. Bass guitar collecting is turning into somewhat of an addiction for Brad as his current inventory is 8 bass guitars. Musically, Brad's tastes are pretty diverse. He can enjoy an opera chorus about as much as Ted Nugent. His favorite bass player(s) include: Sir Paul Mcartney, Berry Oakley, Victor Wooten, Oteil Burbridge, Jaco Pastorius, George Porter Jr, James Jamerson, Allen Woody, John Entwistle, and a host of others. At his day job, Brad is a Quotation Analyst for ABF Freight System. He also plays with venomous reptiles.

Jody Birchfield's love of music started with his first 45 record, "Monster Mash." His early experience in church choir with his brother, Bradley led him to continue singing through high school and college. He had a toy drum set at a young age, but threw his Mickey Mouse piggy bank through the bass drum, destroying it in a Keith Moon-like fit of destruction. For years he was a frustrated drummer until tagging along to high school band camp with his brother one fateful summer day in his 7th grade year. Out of necessity he became the school's de facto bass drummer. His first drum kit was a Sears catalog beginner set received that Christmas. The following summer he saved enough money to buy his first 'real' drum set. From there he joined his first band in 1985. It has all been downhill from there. Some of Jody's favorite drummers in no particular order are: Mitch Mitchell, Ringo Starr, Louis Bellson, Stewart Copeland, Joe Morello, Ed Shaugnessy, and Charlie Watts. He also likes warm baths and long walks on the beach. His day job is TV broadcasting.

Aaron Durham grew up in a musical family.  His father is a school band director, his mother loves to sing, and his grandmother teaches music and piano. Aaron’s musical career began in the sixth grade when he took up the trumpet in the school band. When he was thirteen, his parents gave him an acoustic guitar for Christmas, but Durham really didn’t take an interest in guitar until high school.  When he was sixteen he saved up and bought his first electric guitar. It was the era of “hair bands,” but it was his Dad’s record “Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs” that turned him on to the blues. It was through reading articles about Eric Clapton’s influences that Aaron learned about other great guitar players. His favorites include: B.B. King, Freddy King, Albert King, Albert Collins, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Duane Allman, Walter Trout, Billy F. Gibbons, Bonnie Raitt, Mike Campbell, Buddy Guy, Jimmy Vaughan, and Carlos Santana. At his day job, Aaron is the assistant band director at Northside High School in Fort Smith. His wife Emily is a fourth grade teacher and plays the clarinet.
