Chris, Meri and James perform a variety of acoustic songs, both flat-picked and finger picked... their songs include everything from haunting love songs to tongue-in-cheek ditties, and will surely set your toes to tapping..
Chris Head is a prolific songwriter, having penned far too many songs to count.., pen to paper.., and a song comes out...
After generating four studio CD's, with his former groups "Tank Half Full" and "Rhyme & Reason", and years of playing venues throughout the San Francisco bay area, Napa Valley, Sonoma, Calistoga and beyond.., Chris relocated to southern Nevada, where he is currently performing at venues around the Las Vegas Valley, Boulder City, etc.
Meri Howard is an accomplished violinist, who has worked with a number of acts along the west coast, and the Las Vegas Valley, where she settled and now actively pursues music and life.., in a by-chance meeting with Chris, through a fellow-musician, the two quickly recognized a musical synergy and began working together in 2026.
James E. Schuppel, a veteran bassist/musician in the Las Vegas Valley, completed the trio, when he recently joined Meri and Chris in their musical adventure.., James has played with numerous groups over the years, polishing his skills as a bassist and performer.., James' approach to the instrument, brings a dynamic backbeat to the songs, which greatly compliments the group's every performance
Chris provides his own PA and all other equipment
