Cam Cleveland

Retiring the dented pots and pans at an early age, Cam moved up to the drums in the 3rd grade and hasn’t looked back.  Even a short-lived foray with the trumpet couldn’t keep him away from his first set which started his musical journey towards the land of Rock and Roll.  Surrounded by a family of musicians, there was always someone playing the piano, clarinet, flute, trumpet, or a record on the turntable. 

Cam’s first band was an unnamed power trio that played one song, Alley Cat.  His more current musical adventures over the past few years include Hall Pass and Sonic Therapy.

Deb Curley

Deb sat down at the piano at age five and hasn’t stopped playing since. As a kid, she wanted to play in the school orchestra but couldn’t decide which instrument, so she learned a couple of woodwinds, a brass instrument, a string instrument, and added some vocals just for good measure. She joined her first rock band in high school in upstate New York, and decided that was the most fun of all.

She’s been in many bands since then, performing everything from a capella Christmas music to jazz and rock and roll; playing, singing, composing and thoroughly enjoying every minute of it.
