Johnny J- Drummer- He has been Playing drums for over eight years. John's drum kit can deffenetly rival some of the greats!  John Loves drumming and does it well. He has known Tom for almost twelve years now and has tried frequently to get a successful group together. But its difficult to find a combination of the right musicians and dedication. John cant get enough of the way he feels while writing music with Tom, Dan, and Aaron. We hope that you all will enjoy what we have in store for you. This project has proven itself to be the best idea Tom and John have ever concocted. "We hope you will enjoy what we have in store for you and we hope to see you at our shows!" "To all you musicians out there...... Keep rockin, let your music steal your soul, and never say never when it comes to expressing yourself through your music!!"

Dan The Man- lead vocals- Dan loves what this project has done for him. It has allowed him to open himself up and explore deep into his musical creativity. He loses himself in the music, and in writing the lyrics, he shares a piece of life with each and every one of you! He loves singing, and before joining wih Tom and John he has never fronted a band. While Soulshine works on writing new tunes, Dan can be found on a nearby couch or chair. With his hands on his ears, he works on pulling a new vocal style from down deep inside him. He works very hard to make things right when it comes to the words. He's instrumentally inclined, and enjoys playing a variety of alternate intruments including: harmonica, keys, african drums, digerydoo, and some others. "I love U all! U are the fans that carry us to our happy ora and keep us writing. Peace!"

Tom Niles- guitar- Tom has been playing guitar for more than seventeen years. He plays a 1961 Gibson SG, through a B-52 stealth series, 100 watt, amp head. He uses a limited number of foot switches, includng a boss E Q, boss Chorus, boss tuner, a digi-tech delay, and a dunlap wah. Hes influenced by the way blues and soul can be blended with an upbeat rock riff and make a great squeeze. To Tommy nothing compres to the sound we get from combining these styles. He truly loves the music in this band and its the first time that the music he's writen affected him so deeply.Tom and Johnny have been friends for almost twelve years, and are so proud of this project!

" We hope to see you at all at our shows. we love anyone who likes our music."

Aaron Tweed- Bass guitar- The newest member of the band. He holds a strong presence in the band, and has deffinitely taken their playing to an otherworldly level. He has been playing bass for seven years, and played in a few bands in the past. Aaron is currently a full time student, but admits he pends more time writing bass lines for the band than he does on homework. Although he's a laid back guy, and at times will not say a word, he just picks up his instrument with masterfull skill, and shines his heart through in the form of smooth, filling, bass lines. Soon he and the rest of the guys will be on a stage somewhere near you. So check them out.
