D.K. Warner-Vocals, Guitar, Interesting Tidbits
Drummer, upright bass player, guitarist, former hair band member turned hillbilly greaser. An eclectic blend would be the best way to describe D.K.'s musical history. Crossing paths with many musicians and fans of music over the years has provided him with a rather varied repertoire. Limited time in music school during his college years did little to provide him with the background that he was seeking. The biggest musical direction and influence truly came from Jim Bowie, a Buddhist banjo master originally from Oklahoma. Impromptu musical gatherings in a collection of antiquated mobile homes in the hills of the Sangre De Cristo Mountains were in some form classroom sessions for the master and student.
Later, involvement with The Ramon Bermudez Group , Fat Guys With Money, and The Nomads provided further musical direction.
D.K. has played with many artists and groups over the years but this is his first opportunity to front a band which has been a goal of his since coming to the realization that the front man hauls less gear.

Aaron Anderson-Keyboards
Aaron started playing the piano when he was 10. Despite his piano teacher's best efforts to keep him classically focused, his parents' record collection--country and folk music, and 50's Rock and Roll--won the battle for his ears and hands. Aaron played jazz, rock, and blues in Idaho in the late 90's, and studied with Chuck Smith, Sandon Mayhew, and Art Houle in the Boise area. Since moving to New Mexico, he’s played with a few groups around Los Alamos, including the Rio Grande Mud Band (2007-2009), and the Generations band at the Trinity on the Hill Episcopal Church (off and on since 2004). Aaron is glad to be an Affordable again, playing the blues and rockabilly music that he loves.
