Kristy (vocals and rhythm guitar), Mark Roeder (steel guitar, mandolin, fiddle, vocals) & Steve Kasprzak (bass & vocals).

Richard Wiegel has been a fixture on the Wisconsin music scene for more than 30 years. In groups like the The Midwesterners, Johnny and the Hawaiians, Out of the West, The Swing Crew, Clicker and the Bowery Boys, Richard's guitar playing has always been exciting and stirring.
