Midwest
during the summers. Once in college, Chelisa had the opportunity to begin recording both with her Chorale as well as background vocals for different solo artists. She has recently recorded with local favorites G. Burton and Matt Brent and has completed a few solo projects herself. Last Spring Chelisa recorded a vocal duet with Paul Otten that was picked up for a Taco Time commercial in
Washington
State
. She can be seen performing with some great local artists:
G Burton, Big Whiskey, The Clark Jenkins Trio and also an acoustic duo with Elton Clifton.

Tim is from a musical family and has been playing guitar since the age of 4. His grassroots revert back to Bluegrass Music as a kid. His entire family still plays music to this day. He grew up singing everything from Bill Monroe and the Osborne Brothers to George Jones and Merle Haggard. His versatile vocals range from the easy listening tunes of James Taylor and Jimmy Buffett to the classic rock hits of Bob Seger and the Eagles. He rekindled his passion for country and southern rock while living in Dallas, Texas in the early 80s. His biggest influences (outside of his banjo playing dad, Buck) stem from the songwriter styles of Kris Kristofferson and Willie Nelson and musicians such as Dan Fogelberg and The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. Today, Tim showcases his diverse musical genres at restaurants, bars, church festivals and private parties. However, his favorite musical times are the" back porch" pickin' sessions.
Tim can be seen several times a month playing on the east side of Cincinnati at such establishments as Cheeseburger in Paradise, Pirates Cove (at Four Seasons Marina), Quaker Steak and Lube, City Barbeque, and Smokey Bones, just to name a few.
