Lisa Carrington - Lead Vocals, Acoustic Guitar & Harmonica

Hello! My name is Lisa and I am busy chasing my dream!  I started singing in high school with the Choir and Show Choir (Northland Vikings class of '90) and in the early 2000s started singing with a group "Highway 70" a classic rock/country group, playing our biggest gig around 2003 on the bicentennial stage at Red, White & BOOM!  They told me I had to play an instrument if I wanted to be in the band, so I taught myself to play guitar, which has been fun!  I am happily married to my #1 fan - Mike (Since Nov 1994), and after taking time away from music to raise my daughter, I jumped back into playing with a group we named, Waterloo 5, as it was formed in the historic village of Waterloo Ohio on Waterloo Rd and there were 5 of us in the band. The band was formed in 2016 and I am finding, like most bands, sometimes band members come and go for various reasons, this has been a difficult lesson for me to learn.  I have met so many wonderful people along my journey with this group (RIP DAVE WILLIAMS) who are precious to me and who I miss dearly!  While the band members may have changed over the years, one thing remains the same, and that is the PIPES(refer to photo below)!  I always look forward to meeting new friends while we are playing out, so don't be shy, come say hello!

 

DAN PERKINS - Lead Guitar and Back up vocals

Dan began his musical journey in the 80's playing piano, wearing out his sister's record collection and eventually talking his mother into allowing him to forego piano lessons to learn the guitar. She later came to regret that decision once the classical guitar was replaced with an electric and as much volume as could be

produced by a small 50W amp. The influences in those days fell into the "hair band" category including the likes of Van Halen, Dokken, Metallica, Guns N' Roses and many points in between. Dan joined his first band at age 15 with some friends from school and went on to play in several bands over the years including a 2-decade long affair with a group of lifelong fiends in Columbus-based blues/rock band, "Smokestack Lightning". More recent

interests/influences are fairly wide-ranging and include Joe Bonamassa, David Gilmour, Lindsey Buckingham and anything with a melody that moves the soul.

Gary Williams - Keyboard, Bass& Vocals

Skip Longshaw - Drums

Steve Clo - Bass & Vocals

Steve started playing bass guitar at the age of 14, learning many progressive rock songs from groups such as Rush and Yes. He always loved the sound of Rickenbacker bass guitars and in 2002 got the model 4003 that is his current standard. Steve has two younger brothers that live in Nashville who also love to play rock and roll . His youngest brother, Tim plays drums in The Music City Stones, a Rolling Stones tribute band. His middle brother, Dave got a bachelor's degree in Studio Jazz Guitar, has written several guitar instruction books, and played in a grammy-nominated band for best Rock/Gospel album. Steve loves the feeling when the band is in the groove and the sounds become almost magical. He also plays bass and electric guitar at his church and at volunteer services at an assisted living facility.
