After 9 years of piano from age 7, Ken got the "rock" bug in high-school bands covering the music of the "70s, an influence that has remained ever since. He played in some of the most popular bands in his home town of Atlanta, and then in Eastern Idaho, for a total run of nearly 20 years.

In "97, Ken and his wife, Jeanifer, and 3 kids moved to PA where he pursued his software career. As two more children arrived and life, family, and job happened, Ken took a long break from music until 2006, when he picked up some gear and started work on "Perfect World" ... recording old songs with new, and enlisting the help of Rod, Andy and others to complete the project.

Ken and crew live in the way-out southwestern Philly burbs with grain silos, horses, and cows in view from the porch, and a substantial recording studio in the basement!

Ken finally figured out what was causing all the kids ...

Rod began playing guitar at age seven. He started his professional career playing bass in his older brother's country band from age 13 through his high school years. During that time, he also began playing lead electric guitar.

Immediately after high school, Rod started a full time musical career playing primarily the nightclub scene, and continuing for some 20 years. Rod has a fondness for acoustic/electric rock and is currently working on a gospel album in that style.

Rod lives in northern Idaho with his two wonderful children, several dogs and a bunch of sheep which the family raises. Rod operates a small project studio in his home, working both on his own projects and recording and producing other local artists.

Rod really likes sheep jokes.

drums ...

Andy Frame has been playing drums since age 4. After performing for many years in the club and wedding circuits of Indianapolis, he moved to South Florida in 2001 where his focus shifted towards studio recordings. Also a capable guitar player, bassist and keyboard player, Andy released a full length CD entitled 'Grow', along with his wife and writing partner Julie, under the name 'The Mosaics' in 2007.

He currently plays drums full-time with The PowerCats, a rock and blues trio based in South Florida. Andy is also a professional photographer who now resides in Lake Worth with Julie and their two children.


Due to his multiple musical talents, we affectionately call Andy the "MLF" ... "Musical Little" ... uh ... "Friend" ....
