Gary Harvey: Bass and Vocals - Gary
has been very prominent in the New Zealand music scene. He's also done
a couple of tours of duty in the UK in the 70's and Texas in the
90's. His time in the UK brought him close to the
"big time" on a number of occasions - he auditioned
for Free, got the job but contractual obligations (either the band
stayed together or they were finished) ended that. SuperTramp
asked him to join, but he didn't like their music.... and also Stealers
Wheel offered him a job, but at the time, couldn't pay enough to
support his family. So NZ has seen him play with amongst others Sonny
Day, Black and Blue and The Red House Rockers. He's opened for
George Thorogood, The Fabulous Thunderbirds and a few notable others.

Stray Falcon

StrayFalcon -
originally from Puerto Rico, moved to Miami Florida and as a teen,
played in house bands on percussion. Then moving on to the guitar, Juan
Sanchez, his real name, moved to New Zealand 10 years ago and had been
looking for an opportunity to play with seasoned professionals. His
break came in the form or a phone call from a friend who said that Gary
Harvey was looking for a rhythm guitarist and that he should audition
for the band...
The Gods
certainly have shone down upon Juan, who being deeply religious sees
this band as his calling, and feels truly blessed.
