Our drummer, Jim Nelson has been the heart and soul of the
rhythm section for over 6 years now.  His resume contains far too
many credits to list here, but suffice it to say, Jim has played
with just about everybody.  He can often be heard playing
percussion for various road shows and orchestras in town,
including the Phoenix Symphony.  Remember, Clark may
drive the band bus, but Jim drives the band!

Steve Fitch, drums

Selwyn Reams, bass

Ted Sistrunk, bass

Auggie Mendoza, piano/arranger

Jay Maynes (a.k.a. Juan Oskar), piano

Our resident guitarist Billy (I don't have email) Abdo is currently on hiatus,

but when available, he has thrilled the hipper members of our audiences
with burning licks that were most likely stolen from Carlos Santana.

On Latin Percussion, the EDBB has
often featured the
great Francisco (Frank) Sanchez.  Frank has been playing in the
Valley for years, and formerly toured with the Kingston Trio.
