Bradley Clark

Bass Guitar

Knowing at an early age that bass guitar was calling him, Brad has drawn piano and guitar influence from his Mother and chose to follow his own path with the low bass frequencies. Partnering with many singer-songwriters, cover and tribute bands, and countless shows up and down the East Coast, Mid-West and Mid-Atlantic region, he has carved out his niche as an in-demand and quintessential cornerstone to many rhythm sections.

Often choosing a humble, dynamic and selective style, and "less is more" playing approach with focus on notes played and not played, Brad can easily frame the foundation for most any performance situation. His experience on the road through countless Casinos, Theaters, and Corporate events and experience with many session greats along the way has led him down a path as a valued rock, country, tribute, and original style bass player / side-man.

Jimmy Johnston

Raised in Bedford, New York, Jimmy has played guitar professionally since his teens. He is a mutli-intrumentalist, and accomplished vocalist. His name is an established cornerstone in the Greater CT/NY Community.
