Danny Roberts
"Mudcrutch traveled cross-country to California in 1974 with drummer Randall Marsh and guitarist Danny Roberts and in early '75 with bass player Charlie Souza seeking fame and fortune, and they immediately signed a contract with the up-and-coming L.A. based Shelter Records label. As the first single on Shelter, "Depot Street" was released, the band lived in Leon Russell's recording studio for months recording an album of the early catalog of Tom Petty songs. However, being confined to the studio took its toll, and the band members went their seperate ways." An excerpt from Florida Music Hall of Fame - FLMusicHall.org -

Jeff Calder and the Swimming Pool Q's
One of the South's most enduring creative bands, The Swimming Pool Q's continue to record and perform their incomparable visionary pop in the 21st Century. If 2001's deluxe reissue of The Deep End began a historical reappraisal of The Q's, the new sound of Royal Academy of Reality, which appeared in June, 2003, caught even their longtime supporters off guard. The storm of acclaim that followed reestablished the Atlanta group as a prominent and vital force on the American music scene. -

Larry Berwald
Larry Berwald grew up in the citrus belt of Florida and was forever affected along with thousands of adolescents by the Beatles' appearance on The Ed Sullivan show in 1964. High School Top 40 bands were the incubators of eventual serious musicianship, and college liberal arts studies just served to delay the inevitable.The 70's were marked by serious pursuit of professional musicianship which culminated in a three year stint as lead guitarist with Wet Willie, a Southern Rock Icon and another three years as lead guitarist for Jimmy Hall. Several albums on Epic records documented Larry's guitar work including the Billboard top 20 tunes "Street Corner Serenade" and "Weekend".Larry's recent musical endeavors have taken him into an exploration of the solo acoustic guitar and guitar family instruments including the steel bodied resonator guitar, lap steel and the hauntingly beautiful harp guitar. Larry's debut CD "Reflect On" was released by Cimirron/Rainbird Records in June of 2002.Larry enjoys playing as a sideman with many area players (see sonya lorelle.com mikeaikenmusic.com bobbyblackhat.com myspace.com/katebrownandlarryb) and he also enjoys jamming with area bands on anything from blues to western swing on electric, dobro and steel guitars.
