~ Frank 'firesticks' McGann - Drums, Percussion, Vocals - Frank's been at it since he was 13 years old. Frank’s first 15 minutes of fame happened in his very first band when they opened for “The Bob Seager System” in the field house at the University of Wisconsin. Since then he’s been hitting the skins for a number of bands touring the greater Puget Sound area. Frank drives the band with a solid meter, (he always likes to say “ the tempo is what the drummer says it is” ) and some spicy fills. His strong vocals (he’s a self described loud mouth) lend the band an equal share of lead and harmony notes that add to the overall blend of the band. The fact that his musical interests include a wide array of genres that span from “The Beatles” to all R&B to “The Red Hot Chili Peppers”, shows why when you hear him play the drums you just might say, that man plays with “Sticks of Fire”.

~ Brian Nay - Keyboards, Vocals -The 80's was a decade of musical decadence in western Canada for rock cover bands. The hotel circuit provided an abundance of full week gigs along with accommodations. It was in this upside-down world that I found too much solace playing keys for various acts. The title of Aerosmith's album "Permanent Vacation" sums it up nicely. Keys were quickly relogated to obscurity with the onslaught of Grunge. The 90s keyboard player became the onstage musical parody who in all likelyhood was not even plugged in at the sound board. The saviour was Garth Brooks who in turn exploded the live country music scene. I put away the gamut of synthesizers in favor of honky tonk piano and hammond organ. The bleach blonde patron was replaced by the Daisy Duke line-dancer, and the gig lived on. As expected, I became severely allergic to country songs by the end of the 90s. So, it seemed right to do the the original project (had to be done eventually). Those were fond years producing / engineering / playing some great music with some great musicians. Unfortunately, the record labels didn't agree with the "great" part (what?). So, for the last 10 years, I get my musical yayas off playing in cover bands. I joined the latest reincarnation of Knee Deep in 2015. Lets see where the journey goes ....

~ Chris Bentley, Lead Guitar, Vocals, Kazoo - Born in Austin, Texas, Chris has played in successful acts since 1979 in Seattle, Portland, Nashville, San Francisco, and Kansas City. A life long musician, his drug of choice is the Knee Deep Band - performing live, making great friendships with talented musicians who continue to perfect their craft with a passion for playing live rock n' roll...........and very very cold dark beer.......and a few occasional jager shots......
